HRS §46-16.1

Counties can limit parking on county roads

Counties may pass local laws to ban or limit stopping, standing, or parking on certain county roads. If a federal or state agency closes a road, that overrides the county law. After passing such a law, the county must send a copy and notice to the courts.
