I know this is super late, but we had the same issue and this post came up while searching for a solution. So I thought I’d add a solution for anyone who might need it in the future.

For us the solution was making sure the collision profile is set properly. We set it to FortStaticMeshPhysics, or block all physics and we stopped crashing through our landscape spline roads.

We had this set on our static meshes, so for us the real problem was that it wasn’t set on the spline segments/points. In landscape mode, manage, splines, select the segments and find the collision profile drop down and make sure that’s set properly, then do the same for any meshes you have on any points.
