Drive Dynamics - The world's most dangerous and safest places to drive

Eritrea - Least Safe Place to  drive

On the map above, each country is colour-coded to reflect the number of road fatalities per 100,000 inhabitants per year.
Most of the bottom 10 - including Eritrea, the deadliest driving destination, according to the World Health Organization's figures (with 48.4 deaths per 100,000 residents), Libya (40.5) and Iraq (31.5) - are unlikely to feature on the travel itineraries of most Britons. But a couple - Thailand (38.1) and South Africa (31.9) - are popular holiday destinations.
Relatively risky roads can also be found in Ecuador, Vietnam, Brazil, Paraguay, Kenya and Laos.
Other notable findings include the fact that Portugal is less safe than the rest of Western Europe and the US is twice as dangerous as Canada.

San Marino - Safest Place to drive

The safest places to drive include the Maldives (1.9 deaths, though the lack of roads probably helps), Norway (2.9), Denmark (3), Sweden (3) and Switzerland (3.4). Britain is just behind, with only 3.5 fatalities per 100,000 inhabitants per year. But they are all outshone by San Marino, which recorded not a single death for the year in question (2010).
