Himalayan mountains. It is meant to be a by pass between India and
Tibet.
5. Trollstigen: Meaning ‘The Troll Ladder’, this road
is located in Norway, Rauma. The incline is at a steep 9% and the curves
are very tight. The road is so narrow that any vehicle bigger than 40
ft are prohibited there. The government tried to widen the road for
safety but there was nothing more they could do.

pr0$titut!on ring somewhere on the 2,2oo mile stretch of road.
10. North Yungas Road: Nicknamed as the ‘Death Road’

those who lost their lives and the vehicles that fell off the road. -
