to be extra nerdy: a manhole cover of load class B125 _is_ IMO cleared for use in surfaces with light traffic (such as parking lots for passenger vehicles) and is tested to 125kN load.

@kami_kadse @realsimon Yeah, and you can see them on smaller roads like suburbs where vehicles > 7,5t are neither expected nor allowed to pass through.

As for state and federal roads, they'd not be permissible.

- I'd love to nerd out about hydrants, but AFAICT that game uses U.S. standards and not DIN if it has any hydrants at all, so my knowledge as former firefighter isn't doing me any good...

@kami_kadse @realsimon Guess that has changed with EU thingis as road weight limits got raised from 2,8t to 3,5t.
As this raise doesn't count for pedestrian walks they're still there.
I wouldn't wonder if street infrastructure never replaced them, especially small streets outside of cities.
I mean, we have crumbling railroad bridges, ya'll remember?

What's allowed vs. what's actually done. 🤭
