The width of a seven driven well over to the left leaves loads of room for a car to pass on most A roads, even with traffic coming the other way. More often than not I get a cheery wave from people for whom I have pulled over a little and waved on. The problem comes where you get a ditherer who will not pass under any circumstances and who then forms a rolling road block behind you.
I suspect I can now be classified officially as a grumpy old git!
So you actually want people to overtake when traffic is coming the other way? On a single carriageway? Never.
