Parking on county roads in unincorporated Shasta County is governed primarily by the California Vehicle Code, which prohibits stopping or standing in specified locations (intersections, crosswalks, near fire hydrants, in front of driveways, on sidewalks, on bridges, etc.). Shasta County has supplemental local rules in Title 10 of the County Code (Vehicles and Traffic).
California Vehicle Code section 22500 lists statewide locations where a vehicle may not stop, park, or stand (intersections, crosswalks, fire-station entrances within 15 feet, driveways, sidewalks, bridges and tunnels, bus zones, etc.). Under Vehicle Code section 22507.5, local authorities (including counties) may by ordinance prohibit or restrict parking on certain streets or highways between 2 a.m. and 6 a.m., subject to a public hearing under Government Code section 65090. Shasta County's own parking rules for county roads sit in Title 10 (Vehicles and Traffic) of the Shasta County Code; Chapter 10.04 covers abandoned vehicles, and Chapter 10.06 covers vehicles of commercial character. The California Highway Patrol enforces the Vehicle Code on county-maintained roads in unincorporated areas, with the Shasta County Sheriff's Office providing concurrent enforcement.
Most stopping/standing violations under Vehicle Code 22500 are infractions subject to a parking citation and bail amounts set by the Superior Court of California, County of Shasta. The vehicle may also be towed under Vehicle Code 22651 (e.g., if blocking a driveway, fire hydrant, or within an intersection). Local ordinance violations may also be cited as infractions.
