World’s Most Dangerous Roads: Deadliest Journeys in Congo in 2009
Years of war have left Congo’s infrastructure in ruins. In a country with no airport, no viable rail system and where the roads are almost totally unusable, transporting goods has become a serious problem.

We’ll follow Eugene and Domingo through their journey which will soon become a nightmare. Slippery or eroded roads are common and often truck get bogged down. Drivers and passengers have to find solutions to free the lorry. Digging holes, pushing the truck with a trunk or tow it, all ways are good. Sometimes the vehicle can stay stuck in the mud for several weeks. The risk is also the mechanical breakdown since the trucks are second-hand materials from Europe and are in really bad state.
