Hi there,
What's the difference between:
1) I saw her on the street
2) I saw her in the street.
The use of preposition "in" or "on" makes a difference in meaning?

Have you tried googling it first?
"in the street" "on the street" grammar - Google Search
Please note that there is a difference in the preposition depending on what side of the Atlantic you live in.
In the US, if you said "in the street" it means the part where the cars go and is dangerous. In the UK, it does not mean that.It means what Americans mean when we say "on the street," which means on the part where you walk.
Ah, thanks. I didn't realize you differentiated between road and street that way
Hi there,

I live in the street.
I live on the street.

hi there,
Tks, so can I say:
I live in 65th Crescent Road.

In the US, you'd say:
I live AT 65th Crescent Road.
I live ON Crescent Road
