That's one of the reasons I could never live in the US. Most of
the roads are just too boring (straight) for a driving enthusiast.


Paul (UK, where most roads apart from motorways and the
occasional Roman Road follow the farmer's path!)


In England, roads are laid out by following farmers going to the local pub. In
Scotland they followed the farmers leaving the pubs.

By the way, Ive seen Scots, but has anyone ever seen an Eng?
