Vehicles: rules of the road.
Summary
Existing law prohibits a person from soliciting, displaying, selling, offering for sale, or otherwise vending or attempting to vend any merchandise or service while being wholly or partly within any of specified places, including, but not limited to, the right-of-way of any freeway, including any on ramp, off ramp, or roadway shoulder which lies within the right-of-way of the freeway, or any roadway or adjacent shoulder within 500 feet of a freeway off ramp or on ramp. A violation of these provisions constitutes an infraction. This bill would authorize a city or county to enact an ordinance to prohibit a person from soliciting, displaying, selling, offering for sale, or otherwise vending or attempting to vend any merchandise or service while being wholly or partly within any center median that is within 300 feet of an intersection controlled by a traffic control signal. The bill would make technical and conforming changes.
