The biggest reason I’ve run into gardeners finding this to be controversial isn’t whether it is legal or not (in lots of places, it isn’t, so it could be removed at any time by the local municipality) but rather how healthy it is to be eating food so close to the road, bathed in things like exhaust. It may not be healthy to hang out near diesel fumes.
