Passing places are not long.
Most of them are just long enough to squeeze in a car and caravan ... just.
You are supposed to come to a complete stop to let others pass in either
direction.
They are usually on single lane, two way roads.
So a passing place .. you have to stop in it. You cannot keep moving as
you would with any distance of extra lane.
