Rome's "good roads" would be shit by todays standards. They didn't have to deal with thousands of heavy cars and trucks driving over them daily.

America's roads are shit because maintaining roads is expensive and suburban sprawl means you need to maintain a hell of a lot of road mileage per capita.

Fuck car dependency.
