From NYC Traffic rules Section 4-08:
(5) Bus parking on streets prohibited. No person shall park a bus at any time on any street
within the City of New York, unless authorized by signs, except that a charter bus may park
where parking is otherwise permitted at its point of origin or destination. No operator of a bus
shall make a bus layover, except as otherwise provided in §4-10(c) of these rules.
Notwithstanding any local law or rule to the contrary, but subject to the provisions of the Vehicle
and Traffic Law, it shall be permissible for a school bus owned, used or hired by a public or
nonpublic school to park at any time, including overnight, upon any street or roadway, provided
said bus occupies a parking spot in front of and within the building lines of the premises of the
public or nonpublic school.
