Have you any idea about the amount of paperwork necessary in Germany to pave a path that's going through a forest or, gods forbid, natural reserve, and that's before you need a study looking at the impact paving will have on the local population of red-footed sparkle toads. Ain't no bureaucrat doing that willingly.
Best you can hope for is a fresh gravel resurfacing, which TBH is plenty for a foot/bikepath. Foresters certainly won't complain their stuff can drive off-road, also, they're usually bureaucrats themselves and would be stuck with the paperwork.
Ok, so there's a certain irony seeing this directly above and posted 1h after an identical post by someone else, same meme, same title - seeing it shortly after reading your post about duplicates on Reddit.
I... guess it doesn't. I'm on Jerboa. I thought it did mark crossposts - I did look for this being a crosspost before I commented - but apparently not!
Turns out the Netherlands neighbour didn’t want to be embarrassed so it extended the same good quality road 100km into its own border. Then OP took a picture of where it ended for this meme
Because it’s funny. The thought of going to all that trouble to not be one upped by your richer neighbour and then for someone to undo it all by taking a picture where they stopped is amusing. No matter how far they built the road someone could take the picture where it stopped and call them shit
