maybe it's a highway with just a single lane in either direction. maybe passing lanes are few and far between or non-existent. maybe it's dark and hard to find safe opportunities to pass. maybe there's a train of 5 rvs you'd have to pass all at once because there's no space to get back over between them. maybe the rv drivers don't care to use pull outs and let others past.
All of these things are exactly what happens in my area. I think the nearest 4 lane highway is about 4 hours away.
Ah, I was imagining a big American freeway like you see on TV. Thanks, that makes sense!
np! yeah, in my little corner of the US there are no big freeways near me, mostly just small highways with one lane in each direction, and yeah the frustration can be real when you're stuck behind a slow rv!
