Shamelessly ripped from here... http://linkinn.com/_Top_5_most_dangerous_roads_of_the_world
#1 - “Road of Death” - Bolivia
North Yungas Road is hands-down the most dangerous in the world for motorists. This one clearly endangers your life. It runs in the Bolivian Andes, 70 km from La Paz to Coroico, and plunges down almost 3,600 meters in an orgy of extremely narrow hairpin curves and 800-meter abyss near-misses. A fatal accident happens there every couple of weeks, 100-200 people perish there every year.
#2 - Guoliang Tunnel in Taihang mountains (China)
The wall of the tunnel is uneven and there are more than 30 “windows” of different sizes and shapes. Some windows are round and some are square, and they range from dozens of metres long to standard-window-size.
#3 - Most Dangerous Tourist Hiking Trail (China)
This is a heavy-tourist traffic area in Xian (Mt.Huashan).
#4 - Russian Siberian Road to Yakutsk
The official federal-government highway to Yakutsk, and it is also the only one to get there. This can turn into a major humanitarian disaster during rainy spells, when the usual clay covering of the road turns into impassable mud blanket, swallowing trucks and tractors alike.
#5 - Nepal, Tibet & Bangladesh Roads
