I am always surprised at the roads in Europe , for that matter in many places we have been around the world . South America , Asia , Africa , how narrow they are.

Some roads we drove in Ireland they were so narrow we scraped the brush along side the road to avoid cars coming the other way , and being on the wrong side of the road didn’t help :B

Get on Google Earth street view & have a look at our roads in Bermuda. Most are less than 20' wide. No shoulder. The edge of the road is either a wall or bushes. Maximum size cars permitted slightly larger than a Toyota Yaris. A 1500 pickup looks huge.

When a truck & bus, both small, pass in opposite directions it is not uncommon to see one mirror pass over the other.
