On the motorway, do they lead to country places? (5)

I believe the answer is:

lanes

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

But I can't explain it at all! Could you help me understand?

(Other definitions for lanes that I've seen before include "Tracks for traffic" , "Narrow roads or road divisions" , "Country roads" , "Leans into narrow roads" , "Narrow tracks or paths" .)
