Baghdad, Iraq<\/strong><\/p>\nThe 7.5-mile Qadisiyah Expressway from Baghdad International Airport to the Green Zone, sometimes referred to as “Route Irish” by American military forces, currently holds the title of the world’s most dangerous road. Taxis do exist in Baghdad, but few drivers will make this trip unless they really need the money. Well-heeled visitors (mostly journalists) have been known to pay more than $5,000 for a small armored convoy complete with four gun-toting bodyguards.<\/p>\n
