Davis has no dedicated oversized-vehicle ordinance. Large vehicles fall under the 120-hour street-storage limit (DMC 22.08.050) and the California Vehicle Code; the city recommends wide vehicles and rigs park on the downtown periphery.
Unlike some California cities, Davis has not adopted a stand-alone oversized-vehicle parking ordinance with specific width, height, length or weight thresholds. Oversized vehicles are instead subject to the general parking rules of Article 22.08, most notably the 120-hour street-storage limit in Section 22.08.050, and to commercial-truck restrictions in Section 22.08.110 where applicable. Statewide length, width and weight limits are set by the California Vehicle Code. For the downtown core, the city recommends that wide vehicles, rear-wheeled pickups, tour buses and rigs with trailers use peripheral streets rather than the tight timed spaces in the core. On private property, oversized vehicle storage is governed by zoning and by the nuisance rules in Chapter 23.
An oversized vehicle left in one street spot beyond 120 hours, or parked contrary to commercial-truck signs, may be cited and towed under Article 22.08 and the Vehicle Code.
