Drivers who park their cars facing the wrong way could be left with a hefty fine, according to the Highway Code.
All unmarked street parking is subject to the rules, but many drivers won’t be aware of the law and could face paying if they are not complying.
Cars must be parked facing the same way as the direction of traffic at night if you’re not in a marked bay, the Highway Code states.

It means cars could be parked any way around during the day - but when the sun goes down it opens owners up to fines, WalesOnline reports.
You could see yourself land a whopping £1000 fine if you are caught parking the wrong way - and it can even raise to £2,500 for goods vehicles or passenger vehicles over eight seats.
Parking facing the traffic in unlit roads can be extremely dangerous, according to one comparison site.
Rule 248 states: "You MUST NOT park on a road at night facing against the direction of the traffic flow unless in a recognised parking space. Laws CUR reg 101 & RVLR reg 24"
Car scrapping comparison site Scrapcarcomparison.co.uk warns that these cars would be shrouded in darkness as the drivers passing by wouldn't be able to see them properly.
“Motors parked the correct way would be visible and illuminated by headlights bouncing off the rear reflectors,” says a spokesperson for the site.
“Rule 248 of the Highway Code states 'you must not park on a road at night facing against the direction of the traffic flow unless in a recognised parking space,' and not many motorists are aware of this.
“We’ve dealt with cars that have been written-off due to a passing car crashing into them as they have partly stuck out from a parking space.”
