Driveway SPAM has been around a lot longer than email SPAM. I think they used to call it "door-to-door" selling.
In the United States, door-to-door sales are illegal in communities that have passed a Green River Ordinance. Under such an ordinance, it is illegal for any business to sell their items door-to-door without express permission from the household beforehand. Some versions prohibit all organizations, including non-profit charitable, political, and religious groups, from soliciting or canvassing any household that makes it clear, in writing, that it does not want such solicitations (generally with a "No Trespassing" or "No Solicitations" sign posted.)
The supreme court has ruled against these ordinances in cases where they interfere with interstate commerce.
Many thieves and rapists use the guise of door-to-door sales to target victims.
