I am having trouble researching concerning what constitutes a public versus private road in north Georgia, specifically Highway 52 in Murray County east of Chatsworth.
There is a neighborhood off GA 52 that has no signs identifying as residents only. It is paved which I assume is a road maintained by the county, but I could not find any info to confirm that.
My wife and I frequently drive through that neighborhood specifically looking to see and photograph bears. We have received some dirty looks from some of the residents there when driving through slowly, and I can understand why to some extent. However, if it is a public road, they don't have a say on who can drive on the road itself (in my mind- lol).
We never pull into anyone's driveways or ever set foot on to anyone's property. We just stay in our vehicle while driving on the road through the neighborhood.
I tried doing some research on Google but struck out. In Murray County, GA, can a road that has no signage stating it is private be driven on by any legal driver? Does anyone know how to confirm if it's a public or private road? Thanks for any guidance.
