There are more cities and industrial areas than you might think. It's much more densely populated than California. Great Britain (England, Scotland, and Wales) has 60 million people in an area of 85,000 square miles. California has 37 million people in an area of 164,000 square miles. Having said that, there's plenty of countryside to explore.
The reason for the twisty roads is the mish-mash of ancient farm properties, created long before cars.

Well now that you're on to land vs. people, a lot of Ca is uninhabitable. Looks to me that in England most of the land is used sin some form. If you look at a population distribution map of CA you will find (and I'm not going to check my statistics) that over half the people live within 10 miles of the ocean. Fly north out of LA and pretty soon you see that much of the central coast and inland foothills is very thinly populated.
Go to the upper eastern part of CA and you won't even find roads to speak of.
