Studies support private roads as being the better alternative:
Vardy '19
A recent analysis confirms that: "81.9 percent of privately funded highways were rated “good", opposed to 34.2 percent of public roadways. Only 0.1 percent of privately-owned roads were evaluated to be “terrible” in 2018. Beyond this, federal roads have been demonstrated to be more dangerous for drivers, with an accident rate of 12.2 accidents per 10 km as opposed to 8.7 per 10km on privatized roads nationally.
In São Paulo Brazil, the governor has adopted a "privatize everything" strategy, especially in the road system. The state has sold over 7,200km of roads to private entrepreneurs. Accordingly, the state has seen 12% fewer accidents than the national average, 18% fewer traffic-related deaths, and 21% fewer injuries.

In Norway, the private sector owns 120,000 km of roads while the government owns less at only 91,000 km. Since Norway's roads are mostly privately owned, they are indeed rated the safest country to drive in around the entire world. Additionally, in Sweden, private associations manage two-thirds of the total road network. Once again, Sweden is rated the 3rd safest country to drive in around the world.

i dont think alot of people here would be "left-wing"
