I'll say.
In fact, the whole "how many lanes wide is this road" seems to be kind
of a lost question... we have roads that wander from 1 to 3 lanes worth
of pavement with little or no warning, lane markers that peter out for
no reason, etc.
This was one of these where I was in a 2.5 lane wide lane, trying to be
a nice guy so people could pass me and wham, the road narrowed suddenly
and the curb just jumped out in front of me. So to speak.
Drunken Irish engineers obviously practiced here before they went to St.
