Correct answer
On interurban roads.
On interurban roads: 1,291 deaths, compared with 494 on urban roads. This compares deaths, not all injuries or all crashes. Motorways and dual carriageways are part of the interurban category rather than a separate alternative to it. These counts do not by themselves establish risk per kilometre travelled or a particular cause of crashes.
