There might be a possible 'grant of easement' situation wherein the residents could drive over the street but be allowed to park their cars on the street without some sort of payment; this can be a problem in San Francisco where property space has long been at scarce and a lot of older homes don't have garages or driveways; those that do have garages very often have ones that were designed for smaller vehicles or, in the case of very old residences, carriages; in the early 60s, I lived in an old Victorian 'mansion' than had a very narrow garage requiring passengers to exit the vehicle before putting the car in the space and the driver having to exit out the window; the garage had been designed for a carriage to be backed into the space; on one side was the wall of the building, on the other was a massive solid concrete platform about 2-1/2 to 3 feet high with a niche with stair steps cut into the side so, when the carriage was parked, the opening to the carriage would be accessible; unfortunately, the opening in the platform was just about dead center and no car's doors matched up so they could be opened. I'm going to guess most, if not, all the homes on the street have at least a driveway...
