X2 what used red said. You can't create a driveway in a ditch. The driveway must be higher than the sides all along the length. This can be a mind-bender because as the elevation changes, then the grading must be adjusted. If you have an eye for grade, you might raise or lower it's grade along-side the natural grade. You are at an advantage if you know your property and can figure this out from previous observations. In regard to foundation, it's no different than building an interstate highway: Lot's of solid base, packed down amongst some heavy stone/rock.
