India probably has the actual highest number of fatalites, but Saudi Arabia has the highest as a percentage of drivers.
There are 220,000 registered drivers, all male, and they go to meet Allah at an average rate of 14 a day.
I have personally seen two of the usual smashes on the Dammam to Tanajib road; head ons with a closing speed in excess of 180mph. They got the bodies out of the cars with a fire hose, yes really.
Next time I see one of these smashes, I will take some pix and you can see for yourselves. Not close ups I hasten to add.
Ains.
