   It's our duty to disrespect laws that are unlawful in the first   
   place. That's a principle our entire country was founded upon.   
      
   However, it's also our duty to work to CHANGE the laws which   
   are illegal. There are, it appears, based on the advice kindly   
   provided here, multiple ways to accomplish that.   
      
   One of the BEST suggestions was for me to go to the town   
   office of public works, and to ask the traffic engineer to   
   supply documentation as to what rationale was used to put   
   up those signs.   
      
   I have done that. They will get back to me since I was   
   only able to speak to Joanna, the clerk. But, she left   
   a message from me to Matthew J. Jue, the Traffic Engineer.   
      
   Interestingly, his business card has the following   
   titles "PE", "TE", and "PTOE".   
      
   Thanks to all of you for your advice. I certainly hope   
   I can obtain the desired documents, and I hope the cost   
   is reasonable.
