My experience of Scotlands roads (in a car) are that they are pretty fantastic compared to our English roads, I have not driven in USA for may years now so cannot comment on state of theirs nowadays.
As I said before, more than a few roads in Shropshire and around are nominally tarmac but with grass and gravel in the centre and certainly not wide enough for a car and a motorbike to pass, but you are more likely to meet a tractor than a car. I stopped using 'shortest route' option on my satnav many years ago as it will happily send you down those back roads.
