Rule Changes

Active opponent of the removals

As of September 2026: Warned the permit program was underdeveloped

San Francisco's two-hour parking limit on large vehicles, built to clear RVs used as homes, is towing people who never slept in them. Kyle Richards' camper van was towed twice in August, costing him more than $1,600. City complaint records show at least 28 housed vehicle owners told officials they were hit by the rule between November 2025 and July 2026.
