Injunctions, a person cannot go within how many feet of a residence and how many feet of a vehicle?

• A. 500 feet of a residence and 100 feet of a vehicle
• B. 100 feet of a residence and 500 feet of a vehicle
• C. 500 feet of a vehicle and 100 feet of a residence
• D. 250 feet of a residence and 75 feet of a vehicle

Answer: (A)

Injunctions use two safety buffers to reduce the risk of contact: a large span around the home and a smaller span around the vehicle. The home is the primary place to shield because that's where threats and harassment often originate and where the victim spends a lot of time. A 500-foot distance from the residence creates a substantial no-contact zone that helps prevent stalking or unwanted visits at the victim’s actual dwelling. For mobility and everyday life, staying at least 100 feet away from the vehicle keeps the offender from following or intercepting the victim while they’re in transit, without making compliance impractical for routine movement.

Other options would reduce protection around the home, invert the distances, or use nonstandard figures, which would either lessen safety or fail to align with common protective-order practice.
