Need help...for my trucker !!

He will have to drop the trl somewhere and then he can park the truck at home. That is probably the only option.

 

I live in a small town and the town board tried doing this crap to me too. I got a little loud at the town meeting and stated the fact that they can not refuse me access to my property. My tax dollars goes to pave the roads. I even had the power company come out and raise a few of the power lines so I could get down the street to my house and into my driveway.

 

It's a buyers/renters market.

Move to where it's zoned for his truck.

 

Sounds like a neighbor has some pull. One of these idiots that hates all truck drivers.

The only way you can be forced not to park at your house is an HOA agreement. They can't put restrictions that you can't get home. They can implement the 12 ton bridge though if that's the only route. Don't risk getting a citation and points. Like VD says, go to one of the town meetings and be heard.

All our back roads are tar and chip and the county could care less about truck traffic because the only ones that use it are ones going home.

If it's any consolation, there's about 2,000,000 other truckers that can't park at home.

Is he a company driver or owner operator? That's another thing too. Owner operators need their place to do their own maintenance.

If he's a company driver, welcome to the world of snoots and find remote parking.

 

I've had the same issue. My lovely neighbor across the street decided she didn't like seeing my truck in my yard. She went as far as calling the police. I did some research and found a rule that stated as long as I was parking only one truck at my house there was nothing they could do. They cannot keep you from getting home. You should research your local and state laws on this being laws differ from state to state.

 

If he is parking the truck on a public street then there really isn't anything you can do about it. He will have to find somewhere else to park. If it's on private property then tell the neighbors to go to hell.

 

My wife's uncle is an owner operator and was stopped while bobtailling and issued a ticket by El Paso's finest for violating a city ordinance prohibiting trucks over 26 feet in residential areas except for local deliveries, despite the fact he lives in that neighborhood. IIRC the ticket was dismissed since he wasn't pulling a trailer or under dispatch and therefore his bobtail was considered a "personal vehicle".

He doesn't park at home when on time off since overnight large vehicle parking (truck, RV, etc) is prohibited on residential streets by city ordinance and he doesn't have room at his house to park it. He just stops to unload/load his stuff. However, if you are able to park your truck on your property in El Paso, it's perfectly legal.

 

Yep, I agree this is most likely right. He can buy a kingpin lock from any truckstop for the trailer, of course that doesn't protect the tires. And kingpin locks are nasty messy things. No getting around it.
