I think the real issue between road and track is whether it's a public
way or private way (both roads) vs just someplace where one can
physically drive a vehicle.   In Massachusetts, both private and public
ways are discernable by parcel boundaries, and tracks (both
agricultural and within conservation) are not.

Exactly what the condition is a separate issue, although typically a
road will be at least a decent dirt road.
