I believe the answer is:

implicit

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'assumed' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)

'one's permitted to keep parking inside' is the wordplay.
'one's' becomes 'I'm' ('one is' is a formal way of saying 'I am').
'permitted' becomes 'licit' (licit means allowed or permitted).
'to keep' indicates putting letters inside.
'parking inside' becomes 'p' (abbreviation on road signs. I am not sure about the 'inside' bit.).
'im'+'licit'='imlicit'
'imlicit' placed around 'p' is 'IMPLICIT'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for implicit that I've seen before include "Unspoken" , "Not in so many words" , "Indirectly implied" , "meaning is obvious?" , "Understood but not openly stated" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
