Are there any bylaws against washing a car in the driveway, with soap and water?

to wash your car in your driveway.

No there is no bylaw against washing your car on your driveway..unless theres a water ban.  
 
Would be a dumb bylaw for not allowing to wash your car on your driveway.

...., I've heard, have a by law to prevent car wash soap to wash into the city drains and sewers. I guess it's not the case in Brandon though. Just wanted to check

That's correct, many jurisdictions have such a bylaw, and it's actually not that dumb. There are many places where the water from storm sewers is drained directly into rivers and lakes untreated. As a result, washing your car and having the soap/polish/etc. drain into the storm sewer can have adverse environmental effects.  
 
If I recall correctly, Calgary is one of several jurisdictions that doesn't allow washing your car with anything other than water if the runoff will go into the storm sewer.
