Daylighting Law - California State Assembly Bill 413 (2023) |
This
year, a new law went into effect in California, requiring that the
sides of roads approaching intersections be kept clear, where no
parking is allowed. This law, known as the 'Daylighting Law,' aims to enhance pedestrian safety by making pedestrians more visible as they enter a crosswalk. This is especially important for children. Parked vehicles in front of a crosswalk can obstruct a driver’s view of the pedestrians entering the street. This is a practice that is already in effect in over 40 other states. Informational flyers were sent out to all residents in the mail earlier this year to raise awareness of the change and so community members can adjust their parking behavior to comply with the new law. The plan for our City's response to Daylighting violations will be responsive where staff will not proactively look for violations and will only respond to calls for service and reports of violations. The 3-phase plan to move from education to enforcement will be put into effect in September: |

What is the Law?The
new State law, Assembly Bill 413 (2023), prohibits stopping and parking
vehicles within 20 feet on the vehicle approach side of a marked or
unmarked crosswalk unless otherwise indicated by signs or red curb. It
begins full effect on January 1, 2025. From January 1, 2025, and after, vehicles may be cited for parking within 20 feet of a crosswalk whether curb markings or signs are present. This is approximately one passenger vehicle length from the crosswalk. Purpose of the Law. The purpose of the law is to enhance pedestrian safety by making pedestrian more visible as they enter a crosswalk. This is especially important for children. Vehicles parking right in front of a crosswalk can obstruct a driver's view of the pedestrians entering the street. This is a practice that is already in effect in over 40 other states. |
