who ever Uploaded thi, first of all this is not a dip in road... Instead its an Elevation... Three railway tracks are passing under it, and as you can see it in shadow its elevated, by tilting you see it dipped because the whole track is dipped and software rendered the Bridge as such...

I'm pretty sure the person uploading this knew that, and was being either sarcastic, or just writing what they literally saw: a dip in the road.

Same thing can be said for the water tsunami files (there's like 4 of them(...it's not like there's ACTUALLY a gigantic wall of water there.

But still, I have to agree, they need to work on making their terrain, and especially their bridges more...realistic. Especially now with google ocean, some bridges are underwater.
