so what do you do if you drove along a track know there is not a single ford but don't have enough information to know whether there is a bridge or culvert in most places? There are some notable bridges but everything that is notable probably deserves at least a man_made=bridge anyway while the rest ist just I don't get wet feet here. > Which trouble do these elements cause?

I have seen many examples of culverts applied to the wrong segment of the way.. theese seem to go easily unnoticed for long periods of time.
