Depends on who "owns" the road. Some are federal. some are state, some are county, sone are city. Use the "route number" to determine who owns it and maintains it

If you are talking about the England and Wales, the Department of Transport for motorways and trunk ('A') roads. Other roads are the responsibility of the Highways Authority which is the County Council in areas which have a two tier local government system (Counties and Districts), or the unitary authority where they hold sway.

State highways are the accountability of each state, which contain interstate highways that bypass by way of their state. Rural roads are the accountability of the country and streets are the accountability of the city/city. In some components, tribal governments have taken over some to the administration of roadways on reservation, however the community, county, and state government are nevertheless to blame for those roadways. to boot to roadways, the to blame government has to maintain bridges. The federal branch of Transportation would not look after roadways or infastructure. besides the undeniable fact that, the federal government does furnish funds to state governments for infastructure maintenence. The failure of the bridge in Minnesota lies with the state of Minnesota. BTW. The DMV is a factor of the state DOT. VIN numbers are used to locate each and each motor vehicle, yet are placed in numerous places, contained in terms of theft.
