All the roads where i live are like this. After 9pm there is no speed limit, been driving around these roads at stupid speeds all my life. Not sure i could handle Blocks

That was like my drive home from work last night! I love the fact that the same guy runs into the other wrecked car!

My driveway is wider than those roads.

What do you do when a car is coming the other way?

When I visited your country in 1995, I was on a road similar to that. As I remember there were places in the road where 2 cars could pass one another safely. If you met oncoming traffic whoever was closest to the passing area had to back up to that spot.

I also remember a house that was built when horse and wagon were the means of travel and when you stepped out the front door you were literally standing in the street lane.

Theres still quite a few houses like that here

It's not difficult to tell when you drive quick through the lanes when another car is coming, you see their lights on the hedgerows on corners. So slow down in expectation of seeing them. Thing is though, in these country lanes, you very rarely meet another car. It's the country, fields and more fields, woods and forests, not many people live here
