    a.

    Where the parking space is parallel to the curb, the vehicle shall be placed, parked, left or permitted to remain with the right side approximately parallel to the curb, with both front and rear wheels and all other parts of the vehicle within a single space designated and marked for parking purposes, and with the front, engine or driver's end of the vehicle opposite or near the parking meter placed adjacent to such space for the purpose of measuring the time that space is occupied by vehicles using the same; and
