"This sign is saying that between Monday and Saturday, you can park between 8 o'clock in the morning and 6 o'clock at night, but only for one hour.
"No return within one hour - that simply means that you're not allowed to drive out of your parking space, drive around the block, and go straight back into that parking space.
"Well, not for an hour anyway," she added.
In the post's caption, she clarified the rule, saying: "At other times you can park for as long as you want to."
The video has received over 750 comments to date.
After people claimed to have never known what the sign meant, TikTok users praised the driving expert for lifting the lid on the issue.
"I never got the no return within one hour! Thanks for that!" One user admitted.
A second joked: "I always thought no return within 1 hour meant, your not allowed to come back to the car for at least an hour lol."
Another misunderstood user penned: "I always thought it meant you couldn't leave for one hour after parking."
