Some of those look like some of the roads here!
The road I live on has a mountainside on one side, and a drop off into a creek at the bottom at the other. I had to pass a UPS van yesterday, and had about 4 inches between my driver's side and his, and I was over as far as I could get. I was over so far that the rearview mirror on the passenger side clipped an electric pole and folded back. The UPS guy couldn't get over his way any further, because the creek has been steadily undercutting the road bank to the point that head-sized chunks of black top have fallen away and been washed down the creek - he couldn't get over any further because of that. The whole road might have gave way and washed his ass down the creek, too!

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
