Unincorporated Mohave County imposes no blanket overnight street-parking ban, but a vehicle left in one spot on a public road can be tagged as abandoned after about 72 hours. The river cities and Kingman set their own overnight rules.
There is no countywide 2-to-6 a.m. overnight ban across rural Mohave County the way many cities have; with no street sweeping or snow-plow programs on most desert roads, the practical limit is the abandoned-vehicle rule. A vehicle parked in the same place on a public roadway can be tagged and, after roughly 72 hours, treated as abandoned and towed. Camping or sleeping overnight in a vehicle on public land is governed by BLM and other land-agency rules, not county parking code, and the long-term-visitor areas along the Colorado River corridor have their own permits. Incorporated cities — Kingman, Bullhead City, Lake Havasu City — may post overnight restrictions.
A vehicle left past the abandoned-vehicle window is tagged, then towed and impounded at the owner's expense. City overnight-zone violations bring separate municipal citations.
