I live in a rural area (I know, duh) but am relatively close to paved roads. Our little gravel road usually only carries traffic that is purposeful. No ones drives down our road just because. They are either visiting someone, planting/harvesting, or casing a farm to decide if they can steal something. Everyone else drives along the highways that are a mile or so away.
Most of this purposeful traffic is pickups, farm machinery, the mailman, or SUVs. There is an occasional ATV/UTV or human out for a run, but gravel roads are not the usual fun Sunday drive route.
