On-street parking could be considered one of the most well-known kinds of parking in urban areas. This study investigated the role of factors affecting the parking maneuver time. These factors included driver characteristics (gender, age, weight, and clothing type), parking space-related factors (parking space length and parking permit), maneuver type, lighting condition, and vehicle length. The effect of these factors was measured utilizing several statistical methods as well as Poisson and negative binomial regressions. Analysis results showed that illegal parking significantly reduced the parking maneuver time. This is in terms of the larger parking spaces available in illegal places. Moreover, front-in parking took less time than reverse parking. While front-in parking takes just one movement, reverse parking requires at least two, making it a time-consuming process. Because the length of the parking space was inversely linked with the time required to navigate, increasing the length of the parking space resulted in a reduction in maneuver time. The result showed that maneuver time at night was longer compared to the daytime. Result of inadequate lighting, cars do the parking maneuver more carefully and add more time to the process. Furthermore, the average maneuver time was 12.44 s, significantly different from 18 s indicated in the highway capacity manual.
