Unfortunately it is not at all improbable that Iceland is in 2nd place on the cars per capita list. People have nearly forgotten how to travel without a car, here in Iceland. Not sure if I can find any figures to back this up though…

Hi Tom. I’m based in New Delhi, India, and am halfway through Traffic, which I’m finding fascinating (especially since I read it on my daily drive – but I have a driver, before you get alarmed!). As an aside, just wanted to mention, in Delhi we like to look on crossing the road as an adventure sport…just to give you a sense with which we approach the activity! It seems to keep us at least out of the top two of the road accident rate…!

Qatar is one of the few Gulf states to sell alcohol, I think, so it’s probably full of drunks from Kuwait & Saudi & expats stocking up on booze.
Botswana’s roads are terrifying because cattle, goats and donkeys all sleep on the nice warm tarmac at night. The roads are empty and straight and reasonable well maintained, and there are long, long distances between towns. Although the police do a reasonable job of checking licences and enforcing speed restrictions, there’s a lot of places where cow v. car must be a common accident. There’s also probably more people per car (or minibus-taxi) than you’d find in the west.
I’m sure cows kill more people in Africa than any other animal, man excepted…

Just calculated car ownership in Iceland for a paper. As of 2008 there are 240.000 person vehicles (no bikes, vans, etc) for 312.000 inhabitants. More scary when you take out people who are under 17, the legal driving age in Iceland. There are 238.000 icelanders old enough to drive and 240.000 cars. Do the math.
