(B) (1) Except as provided for in division (B)(2) of this section, no person shall park, stop, place or leave standing any vehicle or cause any vehicle to be parked or placed upon any private or public street, highway, parking lot or other private or public property for the purpose of selling, displaying for sale or offering for sale any such vehicle.
(B) (2) Division (B)(1) of this section shall not prohibit any person from selling, displaying for sale or offering for sale a vehicle on private property, provided the person owns or occupies the property or has written permission of the property owner, authorized agent of the property owner or the person in lawful possession of such private property. Such written permission shall be displayed in or on the vehicle in such a manner as to be clearly visible, and upon request by a peace officer or code enforcement officer such written permission shall be made available for further inspection. This subsection shall not exempt a person from compliance with applicable zoning ordinances or any other ordinance or law governing the sale of vehicles on private property.
