Correct answer
On straight stretches, even with good visibility.
On straight stretches, rather than only on bends or at changes in gradient. The DGT road-safety manual highlights this to discourage overconfidence. A straight road with good visibility still has hazards: monotony can encourage distraction or drowsiness. This does not establish a fixed percentage for every year or show that each straight-road kilometre is riskier than each bend kilometre; nor does it attribute every accident to a single cause.
