That is how they are reported to the census bureau. Every county reports
on the parts of roads that lie within its borders.
They rarely match up exactly enough at the boundary for the import to be
able to join them up.
In some extreme cases, like roads along a ridge that is also the county
border, every left turn is reported as a piece from county A, and every
right turn as a piece from county B :)
