Parking signs in Oklahoma
Accessible parking spaces
- To mark accessible parking spaces, you must designate each accessible space with a sign that is green on white, saying “Reserved parking” with the International Symbol of Access in blue and white on it.
- The sign should be minimum 12” x 18”.
- If the space is van-accessible, “van accessible” should also be included on the sign.
- Signs should be posted at least 5′ above the ground.

Towing laws
I’m a property owner. What signage do I have to post to warn drivers that their cars might be towed?
- To tow, you must have a sign at every vehicle entrance to your facility.
- This sign must have:
- Language saying, ” Authorized vehicles only”, and “Unauthorized vehicles will be towed at the owner’s expense.”
- Limitations on who can park there. (For example, “Parking for customers of Joad’s Wagon Equipment Only.”)
- The telephone number and name of the towing company.
My car was towed. What do I do?
- You should call local law enforcement. Laws vary between cities, so local police will be able to assist you with specific guidance.

Fire lane signage
- The standard fire code requires you to post a 12” x 18” sign with 3” letters above fire lanes. In general, it’s the local authorities who set fire lane distances in the building code. You should be safe by posting signs every 25 feet, but make sure you check local fire and building codes, because they vary from city to city.
