Generally, residents on a private road must share the expense and responsibility for maintenance unless there exists a formal agreement or deed provision common to the other owners that front on the private road. Maintenance is one of the main disadvantages of purchasing property on a private way. There are different ways that maintenance covenants could be created.Provisions may be set forth in the deeds for each parcel on the road when each parcel is conveyed out by the developer.A separate agreement could be recorded and referred to in the deeds.The owners could create an agreement amongst themselves and record making all future owners subject to the agreement.If there is no agreement or deed covenant in existence, the California Civil Code requires the cost of maintenance for private roads to be shared equitably by the landowners benefiting from those roads, i.e., each and every owner that has rights in the road. If any owner refuses to cooperate, they must be sued by the other owners.

What government repairs the road outside your house?
In most countries all public roads are 'owned' by the government and if that is the case then repairs to that road are the responsibility of the government (paid for out of taxes). However some roads in private estates are deemed to be private roads (they have not been adopted by the government). In this case repairs to and maintenance of the road is usually the responsibility of the resident using the road. Also on private roads the national 'Rules of the road' would not be enforceable by the police/state.
