Scania is actually densly forrested in the northern parts, ca 38% of the total area is forest and 80-90 procent of that is in the north north-eastern part of scania. This road goes along the west coast where there is "mostly" cities and farming landscapes.
I've been driving up and down that motorway countless times and I'm mostly annoyed with the truck drivers ignoring the no passing restrictions on the steep parts of the motorway.
I have traveled on the road trip in both germany denmark, sweden and Norway and experience the difference. so you are right is Norway does not have the best roads in Europe.
And Tve 12 kanalen norway have nice quality roads for me but not a lot highways, also idk but i feel like they never fix the roadsin sweden....the roads are like white instead of dark
I mean theres a huge difference between a barely trafficked county road to a full blown highway, the highways in Norway are good, the only problem is that they’re scarce
