I'll tell you what; Unless I'm pulling my TP60, I always back in and turn around using a resi driveway. If I'm not allowed to do this, my miles will greatly increase. I have a couple of huge neighborhoods that have long streets with cul de sacs at the end. Would hate to have to drive the whole distance, but if push comes to shove.
I have some people on my route, well, one really, that don't want me to drive on their driveway. I respect their wishes and stay out, other than that, no problems.
Some guys in my center have been charged with accidents for using resi driveways and leaving oil stains or cracking concrete.
