I didn't see any specific language about his parking on a "public" street, fubar. What jafarnk said was that he parked "in front of his house fence" even though there was a sign saying "No Parking", but he chose to ignore the sign because he had to go to the bank and there were no legal parking spaces. From that description I don't have enough information to determine whether or not jafarnk parked on the person's private property. Maybe he can enlighten us.
