"Right of way" is the big issue when it comes to approaching your mail box.

It's a Catch-22. Go ahead and measure the RoW from the center of your street, and then decline to mow anything outside your property line. The city will most likely come a-calling. They'll insist that it is your property, and you must maintain it.

On the other paw, if you have rural property and want to ride your 4-wheeler along the fence line to visit your neighbor, the DPS trooper will kindly, professionally, politely, inform you that the RoW belongs to the State of Texas, and you are illegally operating an unregistered motor vehicle on a Texas roadway.

Catch-22.
