How wide should a woods road be?

I own 40 acres surrounded by Desoto NF. They just gave me legal access and the permit allows a 30'x 250 yard right of way. The existing dirt road (through a recent clear-cut) is only 8-10' wide.
What are the benefits to making it 30' wide vs maintaining the original road width?

Highways invite traffic.
10'-12' should be wide enough for your truck and any trailer you'll pull back there.

Wide enough so when trees grow back it doesn't canopy over. Canopy doesn't allow for sun which dries things out during wet winters/spring

Go as wide as the permit allows. It'll help daylight the road. Plus, they'll never let you go any wider and if you don't do it now you may run into problems widening it down the road as personnel and attitudes change.

Plant the road and have a big arse food plot.
