Depends a lot on the area you’re in… there are towns (mainly “newer” towns, from a big picture standpoint) that have roads set up on a very straight grid.
But outside of those, many roads follow the same path of the carriage and horse trails before them… Most of those meandered for various reasons, following creeks/rivers, game trails, property lines, or natural geographic/topographic features. As time progressed, the “roads” may have gotten more and more modernized, but stayed in the same locations
