cover the blind spot, it's not meant to help you see who's behind you.

align your mirrors. If you have any questions be sure to ask us, we'd

How about these for a work commute?
Hussaini Bridge, Pakistan
Sometimes it’s easy to forget how inaccessible some parts of the world are. The Gilgit-Baltistan region of North
ern Pakistan is one such location, with transport links to the rest of Pakistan notoriously difficult. The mountainous terrain, lack of dedicated roads, and wide rivers ensure inter-region travel is tricky, and the development of the Karakoram Highway has done little to ease the struggle over the last 100 years.
Paso Internacional Los Liberatores, Argentina/Chile
As the main transport road out of the Chilean capital of Santiago and into Argentina’s Mendoza city, it sees a large volume of traffic on a daily basis. For regulars, it’s just another part of the daily commute. For outsiders, it’s perhaps one of the most terrifying mountain passes in the world.
Tren a las Nubes, Argentina
Making its second entry into the terrifying travel list, Argentina has chalked up another point on the ‘no-thanks’ scoreboard.
The Tren a las Nubes, or Train to the Clouds, is a 270-mile train line that, at points, reaches heights of over 13,850 ft above sea level. Coasting the Argentina/Chile border high in the Andes, the ten cars carry up to 640 passengers at an average speed of 21 mph.
North Yungas Road, Bolivia
The mother of all terrifying commutes, the North Yungas Road is alternatively known affectionately as the ‘Road of Fate’ and the ‘Death Road’. Yes, Death Road. One estimate is that between 200 and 300 travellers are killed on this road annually. Fantastic, let’s go.
