We just had bitumen laid in our carpark at work and have been advised not to drive on it for 2 weeks to let it cure , however when they lay it on a road you can drive on it straight away ?

Just to add to the comments about the various paving products. Even with hot mix asphalt there would be a difference between letting road traffic onto it vs parking lot traffic. Turning your wheels without moving/moving slowly tears up the asphalt if it is not setup vs just rolling over it not making an impact. But this would only be the difference in hours and not weeks.
