The best answer is to position the camera so it doesn't include the street in the field of view. Though that sometimes isn't possible.

 

If you have a subscription, you can use cloud activity zones to exclude the street from the detection area, and also use smart notifications (disabling notifications for vehicles from that camera).

As mentioned, try to eliminate the street.

Main reason is the PIR device detects people to a max of 25 ft ( tho vehicles much farther due to IR reflection )... so try to cover only areas where people would travel in the covered area.
