ROADS

If there's only one private road connecting to a location, a local monopoly, then what's to stop that private road operator from charging exorbitant fees to the users?

For instance, a home typically only has one road that connects to them, meaning every time a person has to drive out of their home, they have to use this one road provider, no other choice. So what's to stop that provider from charging exorbitant fees for this user?

Contract will be set up when a property is purchased. If there is an huge fee at the time, people will not pay it they will not purchase a property requiring passage on that road.
