That's just a poor job. It's not hard to keep the check kerb level and
hide the slope of the roof.

It would be most informative to see your design whch hides the slope
from all sides and keeps the roof line looking slim all round.

See fig. 3 in http://www.wickes.co.uk/pcat/pcat/65roofing you see the
drip edge which is no more than a couple of inches and the fascia
which is as deep as it needs to be. Both are level when seen from all
3 sides of the roof except the side where the gutter is. If you want
to get really fancy you could have an internal gutter and have a
completely lavel appearance all round.

Yes you can hide it somewhat,

completely.

but personally, I consider a step or
kerb at the front of a garage looks a ghastly fudge when seen from the
side.

Where does the step come from?
