The Million Dollar Highway, Colorado

The scenic mountain road offers stunning views of the Rocky Mountains, but it's also one of the deadliest roads in the US. The highway through the San Juan Mountains is narrow and winding, with steep slopes and no guardrails. Snow and ice can make the road even more dangerous, making it challenging for even the most experienced drivers.

Road No. 2 (Route 2), Montana

This remote road cuts through the Montana wilderness and is considered one of the deadliest highways in the country. The road is narrow, with no shoulders, making navigation difficult and dangerous in adverse weather conditions. Wildlife is often also a danger: moose often come out onto the road.

Road No. 1 (US Route 1), Florida

The road along the east coast of Florida is known for its heavy traffic and high speed limits. It is often congested and drivers swerve out of the lane. This, combined with high speed limits, can make driving dangerous, especially for those who are not familiar with the road.

The Hana Highway, Hawaii

Although the road winds beautifully along the coast of Maui, the narrow and winding nature makes it challenging. The highway is narrow, without a shoulder, which makes navigation difficult and dangerous in adverse weather conditions. The lush vegetation that borders the road also makes it difficult to see around corners, which increases the danger.

Blue Ridge Parkway, Virginia

Breathtaking in its views, the scenic road passes through the mountains of Virginia. However, it is narrow and winding, with hairpin turns and steep drop-offs that make the ride difficult. In addition, the road is often covered in fog, which makes it difficult to see and increases the risk of accidents.
