i dont know about you, but just from the looks of it, while it may not be the most dangerous road, i think it has the potential to be one, if they allowed everyone to drive on it. the ground is not paved, and someone driving at an inappropriate speed, or just without good brakes, could just fly right out one of the windows. although personally, i think it would be a blast to drive on.

So the math would be “annual casualties per traveler per mile” that on would consider for risk assesment.

Either the road from La Paz to Coroico in Bolivia, the Shaikh Zayed Road in Dubai, the road from Moscow to Yakutsk in Russia, or the road from Katmandu to Mt. Everest in Nepal.

Probably the first one. It’s 50 miles long and 300 people a year die on it.

i does’nt even LOOK real does it?
i have been there and it is NOT a road that you can drive on.
In fact you have to get permission to even use it for the day!!

This looks so cool. A photographers dream. I’d love to go and be able to say I went on the most dangerous road.
I’d love to see the village on the other side too.

What is the road with the most casualties annually?

Perhaps it is the scariest road in the world, but wouldn’t the most dangerous be the one with the most annual casualties per traveler?

Is this a driving road or walking road?
What an engineering feat!!!

That’s both impressive and frightening at the same time. I’d hate to slip on that road!
