When you'd hear it
도로 is common in news, public signs, traffic announcements, and everyday speech when referring to a roadway. It can sound somewhat more official or infrastructure-focused than words used for an ordinary path or route.
What learners get wrong
도로 usually means a roadway or road for vehicles, while 길 is broader and can mean a road, path, or way. Use 도로 for the actual roadway, especially in traffic-related contexts.
