What are the 5 most dangerous roads in Sardinia?

One of the most dangerous roads is the Strada Statale 131 (SS 131), which connects Cagliari to Sassari. The SS 131 is one of the five most dangerous roads in Italy according to the Aci, due to the presence of numerous risky sections, sharp curves and poor visibility , but also due to the constant heavy traffic .

It follows the Strada Statale 197 , especially in the stretch that connects Furtei to Villamar, on which there is much to be done to avoid fatal accidents and improve road safety, and the SS 130 , a state road that connects the Sardinian capital with Iglesias, the protagonist of constant accidents, including fatal ones, due to the severe criticality of the route .

Another problematic artery is Provincial Road 2 , called the Pedemontana, which connects State Road 131 to Portovesme. So dangerous that it is called the " road of death ", it does not have a traffic barrier to divide the two directions of travel nor paved shoulders and roadway delimiters. Furthermore, it has at-grade intersections, large curves, narrowings and long straights where the permitted speed is very often exceeded, as well as being lacking in terms of maintenance.

Then there is the SS 125 (Orientale Sarda), a coastal road famous for its breathtaking panoramic views, but unfortunately very dangerous, with steep and narrow curves and a lack of protective barriers making its journey extremely risky.

Finally, the Strada Statale 129 Trasversale Sarda which cuts Sardinia in two and crosses its interior and which over the years has recorded a high number of serious accidents.
