Hi,
Its sealed and a good open road.
If you stay on the correct side of the road and pay attention then you
shouldnt have any prangs on any corner,
let alone any blind one that may occur.
The terrain is fairly flat all the way.

u...
Planning on driving between these two places next year.
Picking up and dropping off rental car in Alice Springs.
Is this a safe road to drive on. Are there many accidents
on this stretch of road.. No blind corners or bends that will put me
head on with a Bus or semi Trailer.


DON'T drive while too tired.
Try to avoid hitting wildlife, but DON'T kill yourself, or others, trying to
avoid small ones. Vehicles can be repaired easier.
In case you do roll the vehicle avoiding/hitting wildlife, or for any other
reason, ensure that you already have your seat belt on.
DON'T drink and drive.


Phewww!!!! Thats a tall order. But I will try my best to get to
Uluru to get there and back in one peice. Thanks for your advice.
