Driving through a new Death Road in Bolivia
While overlanding South America we've found a new Death Road. It's located between Yolosa and Caranavi, not that far from an old and touristic Death Road in Bolivia (featured in Top Gear). Check this out! :)

Carretera de la muerte en bici // Biking the Death Road in Bolivia
La carretera de la muerte de Bolivia es considerada como la carretera más peligrosa del mundo por la gran cantidad de accidentes y muertes que ha acumulado a lo largo de los años. El descenso en mountain bike es toda una experiencia cargada de adrenalina durante 60 kms donde se bajan 3200mts de desnivel desde los 4700 msnm hasta los 1500 msnm de Coroico.

Worlds Most Dangerous Road, Bolivia 3
The North Yungas Road (also Grove's Road, Coroico Road, Camino de las Yungas, El Camino de la Muerte, Road of Death, and Death Road) is a 61 to 69 km road (depending on source) leading from La Paz to Coroico, 56 km (35 miles) northeast of La Paz in the Yungas region of Bolivia. It is legendary for its extreme danger and in 1995 the Inter-American Development Bank christened it as the world's most dangerous road. One estimate is that 200-300 travelers were killed yearly along the road. The road includes crosses marking many of the spots where vehicles have fallen. The road was built in the 1930s during the Chaco War by Paraguayan prisoners. It is one of the few routes that connects the Amazon rainforest region of northern Bolivia, or Yungas, to its capital city. Upon leaving La Paz, the road first ascends to around 5 km[dubious discuss], before descending to 330 m (1079 ft)[dubious discuss], transiting quickly from cool Altiplano terrain to rainforest as it winds through very steep hillsides and atop cliffs.
Because of the extreme dropoffs of at least 600 meters (1,969 ft), single-lane width — most of the road no wider than 3.2 meters (10.5 ft) — and lack of guard rails, the road is extremely dangerous. Further still, rain and fog can make visibility precarious, and the road surface muddy, and can loosen rocks from the hillsides above.[3]
One of the local road rules specifies that the downhill driver never has the right of way and must move to the outer edge of the road. This forces fast vehicles to stop so that passing can be negotiated safely. Also, vehicles drive on the left, as opposed to the right like the rest of Bolivia. This gives the driver in a left-hand-drive vehicle a better view over their outside wheel, making passing safer.
On July 24, 1983, a bus veered off the Yungas Road and into a canyon, killing more than 100 passengers in what is said to be Bolivia's worst road accident. The danger of the road ironically made it a popular tourist destination starting in the 1990s, drawing some 25,000 thrillseekers.[4] Mountain biking enthusiasts, in particular, have made it a favorite destination for downhill biking, since there is a 64 kilometers (40 mi) stretch of continuous downhill riding. There are now several tour operators catering to this activity, providing information, guides, transportation, and equipment.
Nevertheless, the Yungas Road remains dangerous. At least 13 of these cyclists died on the ride since 1998.
