Rain, rain and more rain

In the last couple of weeks I have been up and down to Wales twice covering well over a thousand miles and I think its rained all that time. I may be wrong and it may just be a matter or perception but I do know it has rained a lot, an awful lot!
 
I do wonder, considering quite how prone this country is to a patch of wet stuff falling from the sky, why our roads are not designed to be better suited to it. the roads have  camber to take the water to the edge but then, so often, there is no where for it to go once it reaches the kerb. Maybe it's not the roads maybe it's the drainage system that isn't up to spec, but I know when I am gong through puddles 100 yards long and 6 inches deep that it's not doing my car or my safety much good and if that's a concern then something is wrong somewhere?
