I think you are under interpreting. The road is absolutely too small for two cars, and it's showing that bikes have priority on that part of the road. If two cars are in the center car lane, they must wait for the bike lanes to be clear to pass each other, it's not first come, first served as a road with no bike lanes would be.
100%. If you are a car wanting to pass a bike and there is an oncoming car, you wait behind the bike for the other car to pass before overtaking.
This road is also probably super rural and does not have enough traffic for this to become an issue. Overtaking and oncoming traffic is not a constant given how sparse the traffic is.
Further more. That's 60 kmh not mph so it's relatively slow moving cars
Ok, that makes sense. Thanks!
