Most of the discussion on the road styling changes can be found on:

https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/issues/102
https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/pull/1736
http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Mateusz%20Konieczny/diary

This is a lot of material to review but it is highly recommended to work 
through that before you make specific suggestions for changes because 
otherwise you are very likely to frustrate those who participated in 
those previous discussions by bringing ideas and arguments that have 
been covered in depth previously.
