This sounds like the sort of "perfectly safe for human drivers who know the roads" that actually results in a fair number of road deaths.


If you look at the accident maps, there are almost none on single track roads and lots on twin track roads. My hypothesis is that driving on a single track road feels much more risky so people pay more attention and slow down more on blind corners. Also, it’s not possible to overtake and a lot of accidents are related to overtaking.
