The problem is when they don't move over to pass you. But that can happen in the city too, or even in a bike lane or paved shoulder. Fortunately car-bike collisions are fairly rare.

From a cycling perspective, the only problem I see on the video is how far apart every thing is. It would be a fairly long ride to a store, worksite or library. As for walking, I imagine it would be a fairly long trek just to go to the neighbor's house for a cup of coffee.
