> this is about a main highway between Russia's two largest cities

Go ahead and drive around in Brooklyn or NYC, the roads are much worse compared to Russian highway or Moscow streets, also it's not like in US where the most goods travel by highways, in Russia goods travel by trains, so there is not as much need in road highway compared to US.

Also I have no idea what does the gypsy wedding has to do with Russia? Gypsies have the same wedding rules everywhere they live..



Most goods in the US travel by train. Even more so than Europe. It's the main reason why passenger rail in the US is shit. Rail companies make more per mile transporting freight than they do passengers so freight gets priority.
