In public parking areas across Escambia County, oversized vehicles like motor homes and single-unit trucks may use up to two spaces, and rigs pulling trailers may use the minimum spaces needed, so long as traffic and vision are not blocked. Vehicles over 10,500 pounds are barred from county road rights-of-way.
Escambia County Code § 94-99 governs oversized vehicles in public marked-parking areas: motor homes, single-unit trucks or vehicles with a valid handicapped permit may occupy up to two handicap spaces if they do not interfere with traffic movement or vision, and semi-tractor trailers or vehicles pulling travel or boat trailers may use the minimum number of spaces reasonably needed. Separately, § 94-98 bars parking any vehicle exceeding 10,500 pounds gross weight on a county road right-of-way except for pickups, deliveries or permitted construction materials. The county engineer may post size and weight limits on specific roads under § 94-1.
Oversized-vehicle and overweight-parking violations are enforced as county code violations; vehicles blocking spaces or rights-of-way may be ticketed and towed at the owner's expense.
