To protect lives and property during wildfire conditions, the City of Los Angeles implemented the Red Flag Parking Restrictions Program, active since January 1, 2006.

When a Red Flag Day is declared by the Los Angeles City Fire Department, parking is strictly prohibited in posted areas within the Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zones.

These zones include narrow roads, sharp curves, hairpin turns, and key intersections, areas where parked vehicles can block access for emergency responders and trap residents during evacuation. 

More than 1,700 signs were installed by the Department of Transportation to clearly mark these restricted areas. Illegally parked vehicles will be towed to ensure roadways remain clear for emergency access.
