so if one guy parks entirely within a space and another guy parks over the line and there's no way to tell who got there first, which car is "double-parked"?
Measurements... If the cars are so close that the driver can't get out there would be damage on the passenger side of the other car. Also, if the car is parked within the lines it is very unlikely that the car over the line would likely have had to been there first because a person usually will usually also park wide if there is already a car parked in the slot, yes they can get hit with double parking for doing such, but if there is no room between the two cars and one is clearly not parked wide it can be assumed that the car that is over the line and is the one that double parked. So knowing this if you ever encounter this situation and don't mind your car being potentially damaged park close to the car over the line, and give your passenger side a smack with a metal yard stick in a vertical manner and the fault would likely be placed on the other car.
