  • World’s Most Dangerous Roads | Bangladesh - The Nawabpur Road in Dhaka (2010)
    World’s Most Dangerous Roads | India - Leh-Manali Highway: • World’s Most Dangerous...
    In Bangladesh, the land with the highest density of population in the world (and the highest amount of corruption), the daily struggle to survive is fought everywhere, including the streets. Nowhere do people drive as brutally and recklessly as here. In Bangladesh you drive on the road like others drive with a bumper car: if you need space, you simply ram the car driving next to you. The police only came if there are fatalities. The biggest bottleneck in the transport system is the historical old town of Dhaka. Old Dhaka is a universe of its own, a world of bazaars in which every trade has its own quarter: there are streets of jewelers, sweets makers and fashionable tailors, and the vegetable wholesalers have their warehouses down at the port. The deliveries take place mostly on the river, the Buriganga River, a stinking cesspool. But the sold goods usually leave by land, and the customers also come by the land route - the Nawabpur Road. They generally come in buses or by rickshaw, where too many people are crammed into too little space. The traffic in Dhaka is everyday, normal madness. The film accompanies a rickshaw, a bus and a truck on their dangerous way through the streets of Dhaka and shows how it is possible to survive in what seems to be an incontrollable chaos.

    In Bangladesh, the country with the highest population density as well as the highest rate of corruption, the daily struggle to survive is fought everywhere, including the streets. Nowhere do people drive as recklessly as here. Survival of the fearless drivers. Kinda like driving on one of those bumper car rides at county fairs. If you need space, you ram your way through.
    The police only come to accidents if there's a fatality. The biggest bottleneck is the historic old town of Dhaka. Historical Dhaka is a universe all its own. A world of bazaars: jewelers, sweets, tailors, fruits, and vegetables. The warehouses are located at the port and the hotspot for deliveries is at the port. Near the Buriganga River, which, unfortunately, is rather smelly i.e. a stinking cesspool.
    Picking up the goods: via Nawabpur Road. By Bus or by Rickshaw. The traffic in Dhaka is just everyday madness and mayhem.
    Our documentary accompanies a rickshaw, a bus, and a truck along with the respective drives on their daily dangerous drives through the streets and what it's like to survive in chaos.

    Hello everyone! I am from Dhaka and I have been living here since 1984. I’ve been driving here in the city for more than 15 years or so. Yes, it's very tough to drive around. "If you can drive in Dhaka the capital of Bangladesh, you can drive anywhere in the world". I drive daily, and I love it. It's a daily challenge for each of us who drive here. A regular 25km ride may take 2 to 3 hours, depending on what time of the day you travel. Hence most of us are used to it by now, and start our journey early, by estimating how long it may take to travel.

    As a foreigner who lived in Bangladesh for a little over 8 years, I can certainly say that this documentary is absolutely on point. The roads are exactly like this and the amount of money they're talking about are quite realistic. We wouldn't normally care about a dollar or two but these guys work for hours for that amount of money. Oh, and for you guys wondering why there are people standing back like a chorus, the reason being is the cameraman is probably white. Whenever "White" people do anything in Dhaka, the locals just stand and watch as they very rarely see white people.

      The development of townships and a significant growth in population came as the city was proclaimed the capital of Bengal under Mughal rule in 1608. During Mughal rule the areas currently under Dhaka district was famous for its textile products - especially the Muslin. Mughal subahdar Islam Khan was the first administrator of the city. Khan named the town "Jahangir Nagar" (City of Jahangir) in honour of the Mughal emperor Jahangir, although this name was dropped soon after Jahangir's death. The main expansion of the city took place under Mughal general Shaista Khan. The city then measured 19 by 13 kilometres (11.8 by 8.1 mi), with a population of nearly a million people. The city passed to the control of the British East India Company in 1757 after the Battle of Plassey and eventually to the Crown, British Empire, in 1765 at the Battle of Buxar. The city's population shrank dramatically during this period as the prominence of Kolkata rose, but substantive development and modernisation eventually followed. A modern civic water supply system was introduced in 1874 and electricity supply launched in 1878. The Dhaka Cantonment was established near the city, serving as a base for British and Indian soldiers.

      Watching documentaries like this can be good for perspective, but what I hoped more people would realize during this pandemic is that we have been on a terribly unsustainable road as a species due to our socio-economic system that affects everybody in the world. What I hoped people would realize (those who have the time to; as sadly, people like in this documentary are just trying to survive) is that we need to change our socio-economic system so we can end oppression and let people actually LIVE, not just fight for survival every day.
      We keep playing an unhealthy economic game as a society and then keep wondering why there is still poverty, war, disease and environmental destruction. It's the economy. We need to move beyond money, politics and war. It would truly help everyone in the world meet their basic needs and not be working slaves to a system that cares not for individuals, and only for profit. We can do better than capitalism. Let's not just feel sorry for people who happen to be born into harsh conditions, let's build a better system together wherever we are and know that we have right on our side and a healthier world to look forward to if we can actually make this necessary change.

I'm not sure about the current situation but by the looks of it, nothing has changed. And, would you really want to drive a Tesla in a traffic like that? Everyday you'd get dozens of damages to the car. Oh and, not to mention the %300-400 car import taxes.

      This is old video from 2010 now Dhaka of 2022 is much modern & clean 🧽 plentiful of new infrastructure like many new flyovers, bridges 🌉 over passes, ring roads, U-Turns, expressways, soon metro will open, Dhaka expressway under-construction 48 km (30 miles) in length run from north city 🌃 to south city 🌃 it’ll reduce much traffic. Huge Third New Terminal building under-construction area 230,000 sq m while outdated 1st & 2nd Terminal building combined area is only 100,000 sq m. New city 🌃 is under -construction near Dhaka, it’s called Purbachal New Town when it’s completed it’ll be one of the most modern city 🌃 in the world 🌍 we have 64 Districts in the country, each district headquarter there’s ongoing new infrastructures. So real Bangladesh 🇧🇩 lies outside Dhaka. This video u watching is an area in old Dhaka which called Nawabpur Road which is the most crowded road & very little infrastructure in whole Bangladesh 🇧🇩
