If you drive on routes like this
- Slow down in unfamiliar conditions: every 1% of extra speed raises fatal-crash risk about 4%
- Never assume the other vehicle sees you at night or in rain — drive as if it doesn't
- On two-lane roads, treat every overtake as the highest-risk moment of the trip
- Wear the seatbelt in every seat; rear belts save lives in head-on impacts
- Know the local emergency number before you travel — our emergency numbers directory covers every country
