If you've got a [need for speed](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/need-for-speed-mini-map) and perhaps a deathwish, this motion graphic from CJ Pony Parts tells you all about the best roads in the world to be a speedster—spoiler alert—they also happen to be some of the world's [most dangerous roads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/only-in-your-state).

One road that definitely makes the cut is Germany's Autobahn, although most [accidents occur](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/project-yellow-lights-love-story) on the parts of the road where there's no speed limit. A few US roads make the list too, including the Texas State Highway 130, although accidents tend to be rare because there are few cars on the road on a daily basis. Arizona's Route 79 is another one that makes the cut, with a shockingly high death rate of one death every 11 hours.

With one in three of the world's accidents being speed-related, perhaps it's time for drivers to start taking the scenic route instead of racing from one place to another.
