2. Parking etiquette

SA and PA are spaces that can be used equally by all Expressway users. Parking spaces are divided according to vehicle type and size into categories such as "standard vehicles," "large vehicles," "standard and large vehicles combined," "trailers," "bus priority (exclusive)," and "disabled parking." Please be considerate and considerate to others and use the rest facilities appropriately so that more vehicles can use them.

• Each parking lot's website provides photos and videos of parking etiquette. Please check them out as well.
