A study has reported that the UK’s rural and country roads are among the most dangerous, with such roads accounting for a huge 60% of all road deaths.<\/span><\/h1>\n

The study, which was conducted by road safety campaign organisation THINK!, also found that a further 25% of drivers have been a witness to a\u00a0near miss incident\u00a0on the country road.<\/p>\n

In addition to the findings above, the study also found that, unsurprisingly, a not inconsiderable 40% of drivers have come across an unexpected hazard such as rider on horseback.<\/p>\n

Sadly, I would imagine that a large number of such incidents would involve some sort of speed related factor, for example, a driver taking a corner or bend too quickly when they are unable to sufficiently see round it, which would likely result in the driver losing control of the vehicle.<\/p>\n
