    Call the court and get a continuance of the date.
    Whatever you do, whichever way it goes, don't blow off the court appearance.

    I didn’t even listen to my companies fuel and route half the time man.
    Pick the easiest and safest route.
    Let’s see run I-80 500miles and then 50miles of state routes or 520miles of just state highways? I know what one I’m going with.

    I mean if the sign said "no trucks" then you shouldn't have taken a truck down it. Find somewhere to turn around, back up off the road whatever you have to do find another way around. F*** the GPS read the sign

    I go down “no thru truck” routes all the time.
    I deliver to my customers there and then go on thru.
    Heck in south Florida we load and unload sometimes in the middle of the street or in a turn lane.
    Never had an issue.
    Now that I have said it it will probably happen next time.
     
    D.Tibbitt and alds Thank this.

    If the "No Trucks" sign was on the street you turned on to, you had a case... if it's at the approach road intersection, you are guilty. "Road signs should be placed where the road user has adequate time for an appropriate response." On the road you turned onto, is not "adequate time for an appropriate response."
    It's called a selective exclusion sign.

    Support: 03 Typical exclusion messages include: A. No Trucks (R5-2), B. NO MOTOR VEHICLES (R5-3), C. NO COMMERCIAL VEHICLES (R5-4), D. NO TRUCKS (VEHICLES) WITH LUGS (R5-5), E. No Bicycles (R5-6), F. NO NON-MOTORIZED TRAFFIC (R5-7), G. NO MOTOR-DRIVEN CYCLES (R5-8), H. No Pedestrians (R9-3), I. No Skaters (R9-13), J. No Equestrians (R9-14), and K. No Hazardous Material (R14-3) (see Section 2B.62). Option: 07 The Selective Exclusion sign should be placed on the right-hand side of the roadway at an appropriate distance from the intersection so as to be clearly visible to all road users turning into the roadway that has the exclusion.
