The center line on this stretch of road is completely worn out and non existent. These are photos from Google maps from 2022 and already the lines can't be seen. On Google maps the last time that one could see the lines was in 2017, by 2018 they were gone. Looking back to 2008, the lines were very strong so they must've been done around that time, at least 17 years ago. There's enough traffic in this road and when cycling past, some cars don't see a line so when coming towards me it's at a high speed and coming really close to me because the line that it's meant to tell them to go with caution when they cross it is not there.
