Rigid standards tend to dampen engineering imagination and creativity; permissible compound curve is accident-breeder when combined with poor traction and low visibility during storms; sharp curve at end of long tangent, or surface intersection hidden by vertical or horizontal curve also causes accidents; creativity will help solve highway safety problems; winter prefabrication for both concrete and steel conserve valuable construction time in northern climates.
