You're lucky.
The actual roads in southern Tasmania aren't bad. They aren't riddled with too many potholes. They aren't excessively rough.
However ...
They do tend to be narrow with no shoulders.
They've often got a lot of curves with poor sight lines.
They're hilly.
They're surprisingly busy with drivers that just don't care.
And they have this tendency to turn to gravel.
Here's one close to a tourist attraction (very busy, especially in summer) near where we live.
The roads in the north, however, are much better. Smooth, nice, and not busy. We often take trips up north to go cycling.
