One unique feature about New Zealand nobody ever tells you about is the One Lane Bridge.
While yes, you may see the occasional one lane road in other parts of the world, in New Zealand they are simply everywhere. On one hand it makes sense, as the country is full of winding mountain passes, valleys, gorges, and rivers. However, the amount of these bridges throughout the whole country starts to seem excessive after a while. We were also hard-pressed to see any rhyme or reason to what drives the decision to go with a one or two lane bridge - sometimes a wide river valley would have two lanes, then a small culvert would go down to one!
Anyway, if you've never seen one of these before enjoy this compilation of some of the (very) many one-laners we drove across during our campervan adventure.
