    To really consider what a dangerous stage is then consider this.

    The African Rally Championship has just run the Safari Rally again in Kenya on semi-open roads. Conrad Rautenbach's agent was interviewed on TotakRally and he said that a clearance vehicle ran 30 minutes ahead of the field to open the stage but otherwise there was still a chance of local traffic ignoring that warning and enter the stage area.

    In reply to being asked what 240Kph on Watagans Road was like:-

    Traffic on roads is always a hazard on African events but most seem to understand and get out of the way, I was there and it didn't seem too bad but then there are always people with no sense of self-preservation, though personally I would say spectators standing in silly places makes me more worried. I'd say you tend to find this worst in central/eastern europe though.
    If the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off!
