  1. urban roads.
  2. road sections through built-up areas (travesías).
  3. roads outside built-up areas.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: roads outside built-up areas.

Most people killed in traffic crashes die outside built-up areas. In 2024, 1,291 people died on roads outside built-up areas, accounting for 72% of the total, and 494 died on urban roads. Speeds are higher on roads outside built-up areas, and the higher the speed, the more serious the injuries in a crash.
