All three of those reasons are BS.
1) If the rear of a car can extend further than the front, allow for that in the landscaping plans.
2) If traffic laws do not require that we drive a certain way so police can see our tags, then it goes without saying that we should not be required to park a certain way so they can see our tags either. Furthermore, without probable cause that a crime has been committed, police and city councils have no bearing over us to require that we show our papers to prove that we are not law breakers. If they suspect that we broke a law, let them collect their evidence on their own time.
3) The parking permit issue is 90% irrelevant.
