Proceed with caution!

There are scenic national park road trips, iconic Route 66 drives, and the best road trips across the United States, but these stretches of asphalt, gravel, and/or ice are something else entirely. Not even the ultimate road trip guide will properly prepare you for driving on the most dangerous roads in the world. Attempting to tackle one of the most dangerous roads in the world is not for the faint of heart and not for the kind of driver who struggles to find reverse or doesn’t know how to change a tire!

We came up with our list of the world’s most dangerous roads by consulting the experts who have driven some of these harrowing highways and by checking out other lists from the World Most Dangerous Roads travel documentary TV series.
