BDifficulty 1/5

According to the accident section of the DGT Road Safety Manual (2026), when comparing straights and bends on interurban roads, on which layout do most crashes occur?

Correct answer

On straights.

On straights, according to the general comparison presented in the manual. Crash numbers must not be confused with risk per kilometre travelled or imply that a bend with poor visibility is safe. This passage does not establish a motorcycle-only ranking or a result by good or poor visibility. Stay attentive and adapt speed on both layouts; a straight road does not eliminate crash risk.
