Dubbed the “Highway to Hell”, Brazil’s BR-116 spans a 2,700 mile stretch of coastline from Fortaleza in the north to Jaguarão in the south.
It is the second longest highway in the country but has the highest concentration of truckers. This, combined with unpredictable weather conditions and inconsistent terrain, makes it one of the toughest drives in Brazil.
The cliff section leading up Sao Paolo is notoriously dangerous, but many other sections are ruined by poor road conditions and even bandit attacks.
