Section 954 Of Chapter 2. Powers And Duties Of Boards Of Supervisors From California Streets And Highways Code >> Division 2. >> Chapter 2.
954
. All county highways which for a period of five consecutive
years are impassable for vehicular travel, and on which during such
period of time no public money is expended for maintenance, are
unnecessary highways. The board of supervisors of any county on its
own motion, or on the petition of any interested taxpayer of the
county, may designate such county highway a stock trail. The board of
supervisors shall cause notices to be posted upon such stock trails,
and also at the entrance of such stock trails, directing all persons
to drive all untethered stock thereon.
After a stock trail has been established or designated as provided
in this chapter, the county is not liable for death or injury to a
vehicle owner or operator or passenger, or for damage to a vehicle or
its contents, resulting from a dangerous condition of the stock
trail.
Such stock trails shall not be included in the term "maintained
mileage of county roads" as that term is used in Chapter 3
(commencing with Section 2100) of Division 3.
