A more thorough explanation:

A private road is a type of road that is located on private property and is only accessible to the owner or a group of owners who share the use and maintenance of the road. This type of road is not maintained by the town, city, county, or state.

For example, if a group of homeowners live on a private road, they are responsible for maintaining the road themselves. They cannot rely on the government to fix any potholes or repave the road.

Another example is if a business owner has a driveway that leads to their business, that driveway is considered a private road. Only the business owner and their employees can use the driveway.

Private roads are different from public roads, which are maintained by the government and are accessible to anyone. Private roads are only accessible to a specific group of people who have permission to use them.
