(Prior code § 13.84; 77-12)
The City Council, in accordance with Section 35701 of the Vehicle Code, determines that notice of Sections 10.52.010 through 10.52.040 will best be given by posting the specific streets affected and mentioned in this Code, and therefore the City Traffic Engineer is authorized to post appropriate signs on any street in the City, which signs shall state and declare the load limit established by Section 10.52.010.
(Prior code § 13.85)
Any police officer shall have the authority to require any person driving or in control of any vehicle proceeding over a street to proceed to any public or private scale within a radius of five miles for the purpose of weighing and determining whether Section 10.52.010 of this Code has been complied with.
(Prior code § 13.86)
No person shall operate or drive any vehicle used for advertising purposes, or any advertising vehicle equipped with a sound-amplifying or loud-speaking device, upon any street or alley at any time within the central traffic district.
(Prior code § 13.81)
Other than on vehicles actually engaged at the time in construction or repair work on public highways, no tire on any motor or other vehicle operated on or over any public street or bridge in the City shall have on its periphery any block, stud, flange, cleat, ridge, head or any other protuberance of metal or wood which projects beyond the tread or traction surface of the tire. This section shall not be so construed as to prohibit the use of tire chains of reasonable proportions on motor vehicles when required for safety because of snow, ice or other conditions tending to cause such motor vehicles to slide or skid; provided, however, that traction engines or tractors, the propulsive power of which is exerted not through wheels resting upon the ground, but by means of a flexible band or chain, known as a moveable track, may be operated upon the public streets with transverse corrugations upon the periphery of such moveable tracks, on condition that a permit shall first have been obtained from the City Traffic Engineer.
