Restricciones sobre el uso de carreteras en Arizona

Explicación Simple

A veces, las calles se dañan por la lluvia o la nieve. Si eso pasa, las autoridades pueden decidir que algunos vehículos no pueden usar esas calles por un tiempo.

Ejemplo Práctico

Imagina que en la ciudad de Tucson ha llovido mucho y las calles están en mal estado. El alcalde decide que durante 30 días, los camiones grandes no pueden circular por ciertas calles para evitar que se deterioren más.
