Road damage is only part of the story. How many lanes would we need if there were only trucks on the road? We build massive road capacity to subsidize car use.

- burfog 8y agoThe vast majority of roads are narrow. The wide ones are extreme outliers. It may seem otherwise if you judge by the portion of time you spend on each type of road, but most roads are quiet little empty lanes. So, on average, we don't really have more lanes than the minimum.
