The lie, Ireland has almost no motorways compared to everywhere else.
Belgium, such small country…why so many people?
I think that Montenegro is the safest.. 0 deaths on highways..
Something doesn’t feel right; isn’t it affected by the number of people actually travelling on those motorways?
This is not taken into account.
If there is high number of users you would expect a higher number of fatalities?
In Poland its so łów because they dont have a lot of motocycles
We could easily win this one if we could afford statistics.
In order to understand Irish road fatality rates, you must first understand Irish road safety adverts, which have horrified generations of drivers.
Ireland is so low because we have fuck all motorways in the first place
Always thought Germany would be leading here cause of the non existent speed limit
F*ck I thought it was percentages, 83.1% seemed quite high
Anyone else confused by the 113 for England?
Number 1 as always 💪🏿😎🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬
Weird that Croatia is missing. Our highways have multiple accidents daily during the entire summer tourist season.
This needs to be expressed per capita driver, i.e. percental, and not per motorway length alone. More motorways increase the absolute unit of number of accidents, per km motorway, i.e. at a constant driver density. For equal amounts of motorways, number of accidents will increase with driver density. Once corrected for these variables, it then, maybe, interesting to see how speed limit affects accident rates and fatalities.
Germany has no speed limit?
Is it per 100 000 people? That doesn’t make sense otherwise.
Incorrect. The maximum speed limit in the Netherlands on a motorway is 130 km/h.
It is limited to 100km/h during daytime and on specific stretches around cities or other dangerous situations.
This chart should be by nationality. Im pretty sure chart would be different.
Netherlands numbers are high. How so? It completely defeats any agenda pro-limit propagandists have in Germany.
Surprised Italy isn’t higher their roads and driving habits are a death trap.
Can’t get what is the correlation between the speed limit and the dead count for Bulgaria. Once you are at the highway the only limit is the limit of your imagination.
Motorways in Ireland?
Can’t die on motorways if you don’t have that many. 🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴
The **general** motorway speed limit in Sweden is 110kmh. 120kmh is an exception
This is wrong, speed limit on Bulgarian highway is 140km/h
Finally Romania is not in top 3 when it comes to bad stuff
Wow sweden slow down safety first
In Bulgaria there are 35 deaths on highways for 2020 and 830 km. This is less than 83 deaths per 1000 km.
But what percentage of drivers respect the speed limits in each country? Driving in Greek motorways I see almost 50% of the vehicles exceeding 130km/h.
