Thinking again on the roads and safety in Sri Lanka and found this old article. Data maybe be out of date (in fact checking it quickly past Wikipedia looks like it might well be, need a third opinion maybe). Taking the ‘Road deaths per 100,000 (estimated)’ column which I reckon is fairest (as in harshest) Sri Lanka has 0.4 fewer road deaths per 100,000 people than the USA.
