Were you not listening? The road is under construction, and not open to the public yet.How do you "close" a public road??? Their vehicle liscense fees paid for that road, they're partial owners of it! How can you be charged with trespass on property YOU own?
Generally, we put up signs here in Georgia. I imagine most states do it similarly.How do you "close" a public road??? Their vehicle liscense fees paid for that road, they're partial owners of it! How can you be charged with trespass on property YOU own?
Anyone notice the linked video? I got a chuckle out of it.

How can one be trespassed from public property? Where were the victims? The only way he was getting his gun back was by having a CPL? What a jack ass.
RCW 47.48.040
Penalty.
Except as provided under RCW 47.48.060, when any state highway, county road, or city street or portion thereof shall have been closed, or when the maximum speed limit thereon shall have been reduced, for all vehicles or any class of vehicles, as by law provided, any person, firm, or corporation disregarding such closing or reduced speed limit shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and shall in addition to any penalty for violation of the provisions of this section, be liable in any civil action instituted in the name of the state of Washington or the county or city or town having jurisdiction for any damages occasioned to such state highway, county road, or city street, as the case may be, as the result of disregarding such closing or reduced speed limit.
The other video linked in youtube shows the secondary squad that shows up after the stop. To get to where the bikers were, you had to go through the "Road Closed" signs. Some portions of the road were torn up, only gravel. I think this is in an industrial area as well.

I understand the RCW but not the constitutionality behind it......(there is none)... public property is or isn't public property, If I live on other side and were walking shouldn't I have the ability to take the quickest shortest path to my house?
(b) Referendum. The second power reserved by the people is the referendum, and it may be ordered on any act, bill, law, or any part thereof passed by the legislature, except such laws as may be necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health or safety, support of the state government and its existing public institutions, either by petition signed by the required percentage of the legal voters, or by the legislature as other bills are enacted: Provided, That the legislature may not order a referendum on any initiative measure enacted by the legislature under the foregoing subsection (a). The number of valid signatures of registered voters required on a petition for referendum of an act of the legislature or any part thereof, shall be equal to or exceeding four percent of the votes cast for the office of governor at the last gubernatorial election preceding the filing of the text of the referendum measure with the secretary of state.
When the sidewalk is closed because they are building a new driveway on it, or widening it, do you think you have the right to continue on, disregarding the signage, because it's "public property"?
The legislature has the right to create laws to preserve public peace, heath or safety.
Article II, WA Constitution:
There is little doubt that, in some circumstances, the government may ban the entry on to public property that is not a "public forum" of all persons except those who have legitimate business on the premises. The government, "no less than a private owner of property, has the power to preserve the property under its control for the use to which it is lawfully dedicated." Adderley v. Florida, supra, at 385 U. S. 47. See Cox II, supra, at 379 U. S. 563-564.
