  1. Elsewhere in the country, municipal and county governments have laws prohibiting any vegetation on private property that impedes a driver’s vision of oncoming traffic regardless of the presence of traffic signs. Why can’t Indiana jurisdictions enact a similar common-sense law? After all, private properties right end where they pose a risk to the right of safe passage on a public right-of-way.

    1. +1, you would think it would be common sense that the landowner would keep the bush maintained and trimmed enough not to obscure and hide a traffic sign such as a stop sign.

      You can’t tell me that he didn’t mow around this bush weekly and not know that it was covering a stop sign up.

    2. +1. This is common sense. If the landowner refuses to take care of it, the county should do it for them and send the landowner the bill.
