Ghana is considered a relatively stable country in Western Africa compared to other neighbouring countries. However, like most African countries, violent and non-violent crime does exist, especially in Accra and surrounding areas. The standard of driving in Ghana is poor; the majority of drivers are uninsured and unqualified. The local driving community generally ignore road traffic safety and laws. The roads are inadequately marked and in poor condition, especially in rural areas where visibility is reduced. Drivers are known to travel at excessive speeds where road and vehicle conditions are unsafe.
