Every pickup truck registered in California is also considered a commercial vehicle. They're exempt from the "car ban" on Market. The car ban also extends to motorcycles.
Since electric kick scooters are allowed, would electric motorcycles be OK? Is there an electric motorcycle class on the books? Existing moto laws define based on engine displacement.
Edited for clarity.

No private motorcycles either." https://www.kqed.org/news/11798594/market-street-is-now-car-free-your-questions-answered https://www.kqed.org/news/11798594/market-street-is-now-car-...
- scurvy 7y agoI meant that the "car ban" extended to motorcycles, not the truck loophole.
- komali2 7y agoI've not seen any evidence of this pickup truck loophole either, first I've heard of it. Where'd you read that?
- scurvy 7y agoSimply not hearing of something doesn't change the facts. Commercial vehicles are exempt from the ban. Pickup trucks are commercial vehicles in CA. It's that simple. https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/dmv/detail/online/fee_calc/vehdef https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/dmv/detail/online/fee_calc/veh... 'A "commercial vehicle" is a vehicle which is used or maintained for the transportation of persons for hire, compensation, or profit or designed, used, or maintained primarily for the transportation of property (for example, trucks and pickups). Vehicle Code Section 260.'
