California Fire Dept Warns "Don't Park in Front of Fire Hydrants"

Fire officials want you to know, if you park in front of a fire hydrant, you're likely going to have a couple of windows damaged.

The Anaheim Fire & Rescue Department used a tweet to demonstrate what might happen when a car is parked on a curb that's painted red with a hydrant.

“Ever wonder what happens when a car is parked in front of a fire hydrant and a fire breaks out?” the tweet reads. “Is a closer parking spot worth the broken windows and the citation and towing fees to @AnaheimPD?”

They went on to explain that a hose underneath a vehicle doesn't fit and one thrown on the roof of a car would likely do more damage than through two windows.
