World's Most Dangerous Roads - Kazakhstan: Dead Steppe's

At the edge of what was once the Aral Sea, completely dried up by the overexploitation of the waters of the river that fed it during the Soviet period. Today it has given way to a desert of sand and salt whose inhabitants breathe toxic dust. A journey of the extreme, in the company of endearing characters, whose struggles never undermine their courage and dignity.

[@patrickedgington5827]

So much of this is a misrepresentation of the Country as a whole. Yes, there are wild regions of vast open plains. There is also the The Polygon where the Soviet Union tested its nuclear bombs. Baikonur CosmodromeIt where Sputnik was launched. There is alpine skiing, modern cities, the best airline I have ever flown, ballay, opera, world class shopping, and shashlik. What there is not, is camel milk on every table. I get a bit sick of ignorant people that have never been there, or seen a fraction of the place passing judgment. Of all the things I saw there, what impressed me most was the people. Kazakhstan is located at the center of the largest landmass on earth. It’s a cross roads of cultures, a cross roads of time. An amazing adventure in both. I was only there a little over a year and saw only a small part of the place myself. What I saw reminded me very much of southern Alberta, near the Rockies. Rolling foothills with mountains beyond wide open skies, what we call in my part of the world big sky, and plains in the other direction. Real food….not crap created in a factory…Families with four generations in the same house, kids that knew and respected their grandparents. So yes there are areas of that nation that are a bit behind in the ways they do things, but in many cases that’s because the way they are done there, needs more muscle, more effort, but those ways still work there; Because those people can still do hard work!

@@derekakaderek winter tires grips much more -> faster tire wear -> faster tire change period -> less money. Also more fuel consumption, and the tire itself cost much more. And if you are a company that operates with 10 truck you can buy 12 tire for 1 truck multiplied by 10 (the trucks you own). Not to mention the extra labor money when you change it back to summer ones. In Norway companies doesnt even change to summer tires, most of the trucks are going with winter tires even on summer, and in winter they buy a new one, but thats a rich country...
