That isn't the popular definition of a road, at least not in the US.

That isn't the popular definition of a road, at least not in the US.
- fabianhjr 5y agoThat is the definition used by the article being commented on.
- maxerickson 5y agoBarely (it doesn't say anything about no building access). In any case, if that is the point, it's better to say it that way, to talk about the distinction the article is making (like the sibling comment to the one I replied to) rather than saying "by definition" with some expectation that the conversation is being carried out with whatever precise set of definitions you've chosen.
- jschwartzi 5y agoThe US definition sucks.
- maxerickson 5y agoOkay, great, we've really moved the conversation forward here. The vague implication, that 2-lane state and federal highways shouldn't have driveways on them, is not and will not be the situation for the foreseeable future, so there's a pretty good case for using some nuance instead of insisting on some particular technical definition.
