Your right its for truck drivers, It means they dont want them using thier jeg brake in the area as it disturbs peoples peace and quite. You usually see those signs in the snobby neighbor hoods where everyones little world is perfect. The Jeg brake is the rapid rumbling noise you hear from trucks on down hill slopes when they let of the gas. It basically creates back compression on the engine [ It saves the brakes on the truck]
Fred the actual edge tread is changed the last ring of tread on the tire has a break only half way across the block of the tread ring. This way there wont be the heal toe feathering. There is essentially nothing to feather since the tread ring is complete all the way around the tire.
