    I think what people don’t realize is that roads are mostly designed by politicians and transit engineers just check to make sure the whole thing doesn’t collapse or sink when a car drives over it.

    There are standards but 9/10 times the standards are written by the local council member whose background is in like real estate law or is the son of the local auto dealership owner.
