Forget mountains, bandits, rain, or anything else we’ve mentioned so far, this eight-mile asphalt gravestone running through the heart of Quezon City in the Philippines is the result of simply atrocious traffic. Traffic that is, and a complete lack of any laws or regulation regarding the thoroughfare which sometimes shrinks from an area as wide as 16 lanes down to 6. There are no crosswalks, signals, or streetlights, and the quality of driving is notoriously chaotic and unruly. Pedestrian deaths are exceedingly high as well, as the area is absent any crossing guards or traffic enforcement personnel of any kind.
