yes, but mapping them with attributes on the road also causes issues (mainly 
fragmentation of the road), especially if you map many details like widths on 
segments. You also cannot map the position of things precisely and intuitively 
if you project them to the highway center line.

There are pros and cons for both ways of representation.
