I would also ignore the signs. You were there before the signs. The county could also want you to or anyone to post bond to drive the weight restricted road. Pennsylvania probably has spent billions of $ in 10 ton signs, and labor to post them. Funny if there is say a parcel of land to log out(lumber) and no signs, soon as job starts the signs come out. I understand if a huge job damage to a small road does occur. Posting bond put trucking company or the mill on the hook for road maintenance . In your case think like other posts..someone crying about the trucks, and not enough to occupy their time. Had a guy yell at me once on a 10 ton rd. I was btail. I backed up up and tried to explain my btail doesn't weigh 10 ton. Then i realized he is ignorant, don't know how many pounds in a ton. Then his mom started walking to end of driveway, i says here comes your mamma to help you out. Better run back inside. Many folks with idle time "worry" about trucks. Almost a disease.
County just weight restricted my road

You and everyone else in county with big truck should get a “grandfathered clause”

This is what I did. Now every time I park at the house, I just tape my paperwork to the drivers side window. Never had an issue.

Colorado explains it all, then weld county where all the drilling has been exploding and the greenies want to save the world. Colorado has become a hostile state to everyone except the liberals.

Unfortunately, that's true. It's becoming California part 2. Elbert county was relatively conservative but it's all going to hell pretty quickly. I'll be talking with them today. Luckily, I do have my articles of incorporation that are dated many years back so that's in my favor.

I'm willing to bet you're totally fine.
Town I'm in did this to a road with a paving company located at end of it. They put up signs, etc. Let's just say it got thrown out immediately.Sipesh Thanks this. -

AModelCat Thanks this. -
Sheriff is an elected office around here. In other words, if he harasses the locals too much, he gets voted out. Out-of-towners, though, are fair game. Around here, as long as you aren't getting stupid, the sheriff won't bother you..."just don't let the state boys catch you" is what they say.1johnb, Feedman and fordconvert Thank this.

A12 in the 2009 atlas..."State Access Policies"
PoleCrusher, Tug Toy and NightWind Thank this. -
That only applies to interstates and us routes. It also specifically states a terminal is where freight is handled. Has nothing to do with dirt roads going to a house, even if it is a place of business.
Not saying other laws don't apply, just the one in the pic doesn't.Sipesh Thanks this.
