I may own property on your street but that doesn't mean I can build a garbage incinerator on it.
Maybe not, but I think the conceit here isn't about what you do on your property vs. utilization of public roads by...well...members of the public.

Restrictions are put in place (in the incinerator case, on a private landowner; in the traffic case, on the public at large) in the common interests of local community members. You _do_ have a say in what happens on your street, even though you don't own it.
