California State Parks Off-Highway Motor Vehicle Laws & Safety
California offers some of the greatest off-highway vehicle recreation opportunities in the nation. The vehicular recreation areas found within the State Park System, Bureau of Land Management, US Forest Service, local city and counties, and private partners offer an extraordinary amount of diverse and remarkable terrain for recreationists to explore.
Of course with the opportunity and privilege to recreate, comes the responsibility to protect those opportunities for yourself, other outdoor enthusiasts, and the natural resources that make these public outdoor spaces unique.
