I wouldn't say we have a "polar-opposite mindset." We may not be as bad as some places in terms of expecting and demanding other people to fund our free-of-charge parking on streets, but most people around here feel entitled to it, and complain loudly when it's denied.
You're right about Benton, though: there is no good reason for that stretch of four lanes. Like the similar stretch of Union mentioned elsewhere, it's completely pointless. Until the road is normalized, letting motorists leave their cars on it is in fact a cheap way to slow it down a bit.
