A lower crash risk. That publication compares conventional roads with high-capacity roads and assigns the former approximately three times the risk. Separating opposing traffic reduces head-on conflicts, and grade-separated junctions avoid crossings at road level. This is a general, dated comparison: it does not guarantee that every motorway section is safe in every circumstance. Speed, attention, following distance and road condition still matter.
