So it looks like this question will still be left unanswered as far as Bobtails on No Truck roads without any detailed restrictions such as weight or height limits.

No truck roads was pretty common in california. Those were my favorite destinations to load/unload. Trailer got really quick attention to get me out before the cops showed up.

The answer is simply it depends....One other thing to remember too is that those signs simply point out the road is restricted. Somewhere in some city hall that owns said road is the law/regulation which specifies what a truck is, and any exceptions. Just because it says no trucks, with no weight restriction sign, doesn't mean there isn't a weight restriction. Same goes for height restrictions too.SingingWolf Thanks this. -

There are (as of last US census) 3,144 counties and 19,354 incorporated places (towns, cites, townships, villages, etc) Every single one of them can, and most do, have a definition in their laws and ordinances what that sign is defined as. Remember, there are more trucks than a STAA type of semi out there, and these towns know they need to take that into account.
