Yep, totally agree on the condition of the roads in the 50's. I well recall the tree tunnels we drove through when I was a boy. Even today the paved roads in my part of the world are exactly as you describe for the 40's/50s. The current interstate system wasn't complete in Arkansas when I started driving in the sixties and I'm still not sure if I like the "improvement" it brought. about.
