not anymore. 
Again all linetypes come from our state DOT and were created for microstation and we did import them and put in our template.

Maybe that's your problem.  The fact they are Microstation linetypes.

You say you import them.  Exactly how are they "imported"?

How I know all blocks, linetypes, etc were downloaded from DOT site (.dgnlib) and after imported in template drawing.

Is it possible to obtain a copy of one of these problematic drawings so I can open it in AutoCAD myself?

It looks good as I can see. So you have a solution?

Well that would depend on you.  I can get all the very wide lines to be nice and thin like you see in the previously posted image.  However, I cannot get the lines thin (i.e. continuous) AND of the type you may need such as stop line, skips, or striping.

I was changing linetype scale to make them nice and thin, but it's a temporary solution.

You didn't exactly address my main concern.  Let's try again.

I can get ALL the wide lines to be thin/continuous.  But let's just say that the linetype called "skips" really should appear as a dashed linetype in the drawing.  I can't make that happen.  Understand?  If so, does it make any difference to you?
