Yes it does. Even a dirt road is still a road. Debris free and compacted. You want to prove me wrong, try driving your car on farmland or through forest and see how far you get.
Oh, I did just that for many years while living in a countryside of a small country in Eastern Europe. Does that look like bloody road to you? Debree free and compacted?
Trust me, you don't need roads for cars, any wide trail suitable for walking or horse riding will do. And there are more trails like that in the world than all the paved roads and railroads combined.
That's exactly what is is. Dirt road. Look it up.
Is it debris free? No. Is it compacted? No. It's not even flat.
What is this statement? Do you really think this? Here's a trail I was walking on recently, please show me a car that could handle this.
That's not a trail, innit?
