Most Dangerous Roads Ever Built

48. A82 Road, Scotland

Constructed: 1805-1809
Risk Factor: Narrow, traffic backed up

Located in Scotland, the A82 runs from Inverness to Glasgow. It is a trunk road that is an important link to the Highlands. A82 passes near important Scottish landmarks, such as Glen Coe, Loch Lomond, Urquhart Castle, and more. Despite being such an important road, A82 is fraught with difficulties.

The section between Ardlui and Tarbet is particularly dangerous, as it’s very, very narrow. Two trucks attempting to pass one another will struggle with certain sections of A82, a problem that has been made all the worse by the lack of shoulder. Traffic is also very slow on A82 in many spots, likely due to the narrowness of the road.
