If you think catching a bus during these Covid-19 pandemic times is fraught with dangers, then think again. While the developed world benefits from comparatively state-of-the-art public transport, the developing world has to make do with whatever they can get hold of. The world’s most dangerous bus routes are not for the faint-hearted.
In the most remote regions of the world people still need to get from A to B. Economic needs motivate people to make perilous journeys through narrow rocky mountain paths, cross fast flowing rivers or navigate rickety wooden bridges.
The world’s most dangerous bus routes pale into insignificance compared to the London Underground. I would rather much be in a remote part of the world sitting on top of a clapped-out bus while it navigates a narrow mountain path than take a ride on London’s Underground.
