Maryland-Specific Signs
Built to meet Maryland requirements.
Maryland Accessible Parking Sign Requirements
Maryland follows the federal ADA Standards for accessible parking, enforced alongside the state's own vehicle code and private-property towing law. Here is what every Maryland lot needs to post.
Every accessible parking space must display the federal "Reserved Parking" sign (MUTCD R7-8) showing the International Symbol of Accessibility. Van-accessible spaces need an added "Van Accessible" plaque, and the bottom of each sign must sit at least 60 inches (5 feet) above the ground so it stays visible above a parked vehicle.
Tow-away enforcement
To tow an unauthorized vehicle from private property in Maryland, the lot must post a compliant tow-away sign at each entrance under Maryland Transportation Code Section 21-10A-02, typically including the towing company name and phone number. Missing or non-compliant signage can void the tow.
