Annual Pilot Car Maps

Like the single trip pilot car maps, annual pilot car maps serve as a guide for determining how many pilot cars are required when traveling on the California state highways system with either a California or STAA annual permit of a certain weight class. The maps are separated by California Legal or STAA setup, weight class, and finally Caltrans district. Each type of annual permit has its own pilot car requirements governed by color and route restrictions. The legend provides route color and symbology definitions pertaining to all maps.
