Apologies, like the pot calling the kettle black !thot u were a Christian rusty !
Right Of WayI'm not sure what it's like there, but here it becomes a "Rightaway".
If someone has to use that road to leave their property it becomes a public Rightaway and you can't obstruct it (though you can post speed limit signs and set guidelines in place for etiquette.
We were on the other side of the fence here, when the neighbor above us tried to cut off our driveway (our driveway hugged the edges of each neighbors property above us, requiring about 3' of each neighbor's ground for our driveway). It wasn't a new concept either, all 3 homes had been there since the late 1800's early 1900's.
One particular neighbor felt the need to block the driveway and even went as far as cementing 4x4" Box Iron Tubes down the middle of the driveway. I was a little kid when my dad climbed into into his 440 Cuda, slammed it into 1st gear and pinned the throttle to the floor, mowing through those posts that ran up the center of the driveway.
It was then, after my dad went to court, that we learned it was a public Rightaway, and if my dad "wanted to be a dick" he could claim up to 18 feet to use for a Rightaway.
Sound advice, go through legal channels. Research your deed and all neighbors to ascertain that you are the grantor of said easement. If you do not understand the wording consult a Licensed Land Surveyor. You should also physically mark (monument) the legal easement by way of survey and have a exhibit (map) of the existing travel way (road/path) BEFORE above steps from dukeboy. A well prepared legal attempt to resolve a simple problem goes a long way with the courts and is good insurance against potential lawsuits.Here's my advice , first I am not in anyway a lawyer, nor an expert, just offering suggestions based on past experiences with easements.
Step 1: Post a speed limit sign(can be ordered online for cheap enough or purchase from county highway department) and place in the section of your easement that is owned by you.
Step 2: send each neighbor a certified letter advising of the speed limit and explain that if caught horseplaying and damage the road or your property, they will be held liable for any repairs (this way , he can't claim you were singling him out) keep the receipts from when they pick up their letters.
Step 3: record any future behaviors via you camera network
Step 4: if he continues, either contact a lawyer or send him a bill or both.
It's all about putting him on notice. That said be prepared for some retribution and threats. Lock your stuff(if you don't currently).
I'd hold off on that . See my above post.
When he got to my driveway he looked over to get the standard hand gesture that I was watching him!
You didn't tell him he was # 1 did ya?
Put some toll booth arms that you have to pull up and stop and wait for it to go up
Hints my suggestions above.....Really I have thought all these suggestions through, but some things that others have talked about including my attorney is access for emergency personel I.E. Fire/EMT to the other neighbors can not be restricted short of automated drive up gates. This is a big expense for me never mind how it it effects me personally to move my 5ver, car hauler and such in and out of my property! Hopefully but doudtfully this lone *** has got the picture!
Right Of Way
I think if the problem comes back, I`d cement some 2" pipe in the ground on each side of the road, (if it`s on ur property) and the weld a 2" pipe across the road to each cemented post, creating ur own speed bumps. Put as many as it takes. It will be urs and no one will have the right to remove them. Put a speed limit sign on the first one ..Tell that to my phone. I got tired of trying to correct its correction, after typing it out several times, and let it do its thing.
