Hi again,
I found the solution myself:
Instead of using th 'brush stroke' tool, now I've been unsing the bezier tool instead with a comparably broad stroke value (6). After that, I disabled 'fill color', and then set the stroke width back to '1'.
That basically does it. Now I only have to get rid of the strokes at both ends, which only seems to work with brush strokes. Maybe I can will have to convert the bezier first, in order to be able to delete the strokes at the end.
Draw the road using the Bezier tool. Set the stroke width to a wide value (eg: 0.1 in), the Join to curve, and the Cap to Butt. Choose Path->Stroke to Path. Set the fill color (eg: yellow) and disable the stroke color. Duplicate (Ctrl+D). Set the stroke color to black and its width to something small (eg. 0.01 in). Choose the "Edit paths by nodes tool" and select the two pints at one end. Choose "Split path between two non-endpoint nodes" from the Command Bar. Do the same at the other end.
