Just recently someone im thinking the city put up no truck sighs the picture with the red circle with the line through it. they did this on both ends of my street. does this mean i can not use the street to park in my driveway which is private property?

    You should be able to park legally in your driveway......unless there is a city ordinance prohibiting it. It sounds like you have ruffled a few feathers of your neighbors and the city is dealing with it the easiest way they know how. So, this means you have to get to your driveway WITHOUT getting caught by the local fuzz, right ? Thought, go talk to the city traffic engineer (the one responsible for putting up the sign) and ask him what's up with the sign ? He should be able to tell you just why it was put up.

    What is hoot is folks get law changed to "NO TRUCKS" often with weight in @7000 lb limit. Then they get TICKED when "service personal" charge extra because they can't drive "work truck" in neighborhood. Better yet is when business owner buys a PSD truck/excursion (for tax reasons) and find they are breaking law driving down own neighborhood. :) :)
