My wife refuses to drive in Buenos Aires.....the actual standard of driving in the centre is okay due to the amount of traffic. You can't go anywhere fast. Go out on to the autopista and it's all hell let loose.
In all my travels round the world Argentina comes pretty close to having the worst driving I have ever seen....the casualty figures are a disgrace to be honest. Of course when the police blatantly turn a blind eye to people going through red lights,four on a motorcycle without crash helmets and rusty old bangers held together by glue it's no wonder the roads are dangerous.
What's so sad is that it's usually the innocent who end up dead.
yes, the accident stats are horrible but as for the worse driving, I think the RSJ is writing..... you havent gotten round' enough...
