Default IFR ??? Country Road Question

Ranchers have pastures, fields and farm roads. Many even
have private airstrips. Public roads have too many
obstacles such as power lines, telephone poles and mail
boxes, to say nothing about vehicular traffic.

If a public road is needed, the sheriff or state police will
usually close the road and even take down signs and such, at
least they did in Oklahoma when we flew Barons, Bonanzas and
even King Airs in for an oil show, used the highway and
taxied into the fair grounds.

| Actually my real question as an avionics technician and
not a pilot is
| out in the wide open spaces in the USA where people like
veterinarians
| use small planes to reach farms in a large area they
cover.
| Is it legal to land a small plane on a completely vacant
of traffic
| country road ? And legal or not do they do it anyway ?
