Residential neighborhoods will often have a sign banning trucks (heavy goods vehicles) unless they are making a delivery in that neighborhood. They don't want heavy vehicles using the road as a through route. Also, a road may be unsuitable for large vehicles because of limited overhead clearances, small-radius curves or intersections, or because the pavement wasn't constructed strongly enough for a vehicle that heavy. Dump trucks, in particular, will break up the surface of a roadway because the weight on each axle is so great. -- John F.
