Oversized vehicles on unincorporated county roads are governed by state size and weight limits and stopping rules, not a local Hidalgo County parking ordinance.
Texas counties cannot broadly regulate on-street parking, so oversized vehicles like large trucks, buses, and heavy trailers are subject to statewide law. Texas Transportation Code Chapter 545 controls where vehicles may stop, stand, or park on public roads, and Section 545.302 prohibits parking on the roadway side of a parked vehicle, on a sidewalk, in an intersection, or on a crosswalk. Oversize and overweight movement on highways requires TxDOT permits and is enforced by DPS. An oversized vehicle left inoperable and unattended on a county road may also become an abandoned vehicle under Chapter 683.
Illegal stopping under Section 545.302 is a state traffic offense; oversize/overweight travel without a TxDOT permit carries separate state penalties.
