Default "Owning" a private road

Actually, if you own on a private road you own to the center line of the road. I have much experience with the city on this one topic. Liability, you pass on a private road at your own risk. One must be invited by a property owner to enter. Sounds silly, but you can be charged with trespassing if a situation does arise. Just this past year each property owner had to sign off on a “limited” right of way for the city to survey the road. Current State law says no city or town can spend tax dollars to maintain a private road except for emergency vehicles passage.
