Ha! hilarious!
This composition is perfect in its own right, however I'd also explore the possibilities for a tighter crop...

You mean to remove everything that is more left than the big tree?

Yeah... sorta...
I'm thinking that one could leave the tree as a bouncer (maybe the right half of it) and position the trails quite low in the image (1/5), and get some sky.
This way however you lose the beautiful shape of the road, which leads nicely to the lower-right corner in your picture...

Or you could try cropping from the lower left corner with a 2:66:1 aspect ratio...

I like your picture also because of these apparently endless possibilities, the original one is the more "natural" of all, the others are perhaps more stylized.

Thank you for your suggestions. To be honest I thought to crop it, but the only crop which doesn't remove nothing that I like is a square crop and I don't like the instagram-like aspect ratio, not for this pic.

I think it would be much more interesting when the car goes in the direction of the camera, and not along the road

You mean the camera in the street and the car going to the camera?

I think that you mean that it could be better with the car coming to me instead of going away, right?
