Europe's Most Deadliest Coastal Road

In this breathtaking episode of "Hot Roads," embark on an intense journey down the iconic Adriatic Highway. Built in the 1960s in former Yugoslavia, this technical marvel begins near Trieste, cuts through Slovenia, spans the vast coastline of Croatia, slips through Bosnia and Herzegovina, and descends into the jaw-dropping Bay of Kotor in Montenegro. Follow local farmer Zeljko Krsticiewicz as he handles unpredictable winding bends, 40-degree summer heat, and agonizing traffic jams while trying to deliver his handmade specialty goods to tourist hubs like Dubrovnik and Split. But don't let the paradise scenery fool you, this dream road can instantly become a nightmare. From the furious 160 km/h gusts of the Bora wind that can blow vehicles right off the asphalt, to reckless overtaking maneuvers, illegal solid-line turns, and deadly straightaways, the highway demands total concentration. Learn why local children are forced to cross through rainwater pipes just to avoid the traffic, and hear from veteran truck drivers and police squads who risk everything during the chaotic peak holiday season. Witness an epic clash of survival, tourism, and human muscle power on one of the world's most irresistible roads.
