Why is it a problem that you have to pass a slow-moving vehicle?
EDIT: this was a weird comment to get downvoted for. Not everyone drives, y'all - it was a genuine question, not one loaded with implication.
Can't speak for OP but where I live it's downright dangerous and often impossible. Single lane in each direction, no overtaking lanes to speak of.
I find the arrogance of RV drivers with 40 cars behind them refusing to pull over and let everyone pass to be one of the most illustrative aspects of the boomer mentality. I want them to die so bad.
There are plenty of stopping bays and rest areas, but no overtaking lanes. Rural Aus roads are SO GOOD, but it's where the caravans congregate every single day.
