World's Most Dangerous Roads - All Episodes:    • World’s Most Dangerous Roads | All Ep...  

In Africa, in the mountains in the heart of Tanzania lies the country’s most dangerous road. It‘s Name: Mlima Kitonga. This most dangerous section of the A7 highway is just eight kilometers long. But the gradient is extreme. And the abyss is deep. Dangerous passing maneuvers whether with trucks or fully loaded tankers are the rule, not the exception. Every day hundreds of coaches and trucks negotiate the passage. By no means do all of them make it.

But the highway is also the lifeline of the region, especially for the young generation. The average age in Tanzania is just seventeen years. The population is growing rapidly and everyone is anxious to get from A to B as well as to get jobs. Because of that, despite all the difficulties numerous farmers manage to survive, thanks to the Highway.

Not only bus driver Alberto will be at the wheel on the most dangerous road in Tanzania. Also driving teacher Mnyama has to bring his students to the right level of being able to drive in this region. A driving school offers the young generation a chance to get a job and by that have the chance for a better future.

Anyways the Highway allows numerous businesses like onion farmers and garages for trucks to thrive. And as the Tanzanian population keeps growing, it is only a matter of time before more and more young guns will start to hit that road.
