Wow, when you watch all those videos on YouTube from Russia you think it cant get much worse, but a staggering 59 countries above them on that list!

Yes, a good showing from the UK beating countries like Canada and Denmark. I wonder how accurate it is though?

Needs breaking down a bit more, do these stats include pedestrian and cyclist road deaths in all countries too.

As Tomoco mentioned Russia, i wouldn't fancy the survival chances of a lycra clad assertive cyclist there, and thats without a construction lorry in sight.

Well, Russian is top of the list for poisoning in the popup menu.
It even explains how big the problem is with men living 14 years less than women and average expected age of today's schoolkids only being 55. That will explain most of those Russian dashcam videos on Youtube.
