🚔🚦 **TRAFFIC TIP THURSDAY!** 🚦🚔
🚛🚐 **JUST BECAUSE IT FITS DOESN'T MEAN YOU CAN PARK IT!** 👀😂
Happy Thursday, Rosenberg!
Did you know that not every vehicle is allowed to park on a public street within our city limits? 🤔
This week's traffic tip is a little different! We're looking at a **City of Rosenberg ordinance** instead of the Texas Transportation Code.
📖 **City Ordinance §28-103 — Parking Prohibited on Public Streets, Alleys and Parkways**
🚨 **WHAT VEHICLES ARE PROHIBITED?**
Unless an exception applies, vehicles and equipment prohibited from parking on public streets include:
🚛 Semi-trucks, road tractors, and certain commercial vehicles
🚚 Dump trucks and other restricted heavy vehicles
🚐 Motorhomes and recreational vehicles (RVs)
🚤 Boats on trailers
🚜 Flatbed, utility, cattle, and other trailers
🚗 **WHAT ABOUT REGULAR PASSENGER VEHICLES?**
✅ Generally, qualifying motor vehicles with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) below 15,001 pounds may park on public streets where parking is otherwise permitted.
✅ Vehicles cannot remain parked in the same location on a public street for more than **48 consecutive hours**.
✅ Vehicles parked on public streets must have active insurance meeting state minimum requirements.
💡 **DID YOU KNOW?**
The ordinance provides certain exceptions, including limited periods for loading and unloading, qualifying work vehicles, and temporary parking of boats, trailers, and RVs.
🚓 **A FRIENDLY REMINDER FROM ROSENBERG PD:**
We know that boat, camper, or trailer needs a place to rest after a long weekend, but your neighborhood street might not be the place for it! 😂
These parking regulations help keep our streets accessible, maintain visibility, and allow vehicles to travel safely through our neighborhoods.
❤️ **Be a good neighbor. Park responsibly. Keep Rosenberg safe!**
We'll see you next Thursday for another traffic tip!
