In Australia, they don't just drive on roads. They stop and take pictures and have wild roadside sex.

Google is retaking Aus streets this summer in hi-def. That's when you will really see how embarrassing the US is. Until then, just compare it to Canada or Europe, which absolutely destroys the US.

I guess for those from third world countries, there is no drama when looking at the US.

a road needs to not damage my car. beyond that i don't care if it's shiny.

How would the Aussie roads be with a population of 300 million vs the current 20 million or so?

You don't have 300 million people living in a small space.

Metro streets are cleaned weekly in Aus. I am yet to see one single cleanup vehicle in four years here.

If the roads are less heavily trafficked it stands to reason that they will be in a better condition.

in our neighborhood our street is cleaned once a week..

[Peikko 1,575]

Yeap, weekly street cleaning here too. Although, I am thinking perhaps they have cut back a bit?

[Trumplestiltskin 5,791]

And where I live we get 3 trash pickups a week!
