On-street parking rules in unincorporated Fulton County and its cities are governed by Chapter 78 (Traffic and Vehicles). Atlanta enforces a 72-hour rule on unmoved vehicles under Code §150-181.
Fulton County Chapter 78 incorporates state Uniform Rules of the Road. Vehicles cannot block driveways, hydrants, mailboxes, or sight triangles. Atlanta Code §150-181 considers a vehicle abandoned after 72 hours unmoved on a public street. Sandy Springs and Roswell similarly apply 72-hour limits. Posted parking restrictions, residential permit zones (in Atlanta Buckhead, Virginia-Highland), and street-cleaning rules add further limits.
Citation fines from $25 (overtime) to $500 (blocking hydrant) plus towing fees. Abandoned vehicles may be towed at owner expense.
