The drive from Nanaimo to Tofino is not dangerous, but drivers should be mindful of speed, weather and road conditions. The same can be said for those driving from Ucluelet to Tofino. All roads in BC are maintained, but there is a huge construction project going on on the drive to Ucluelet and Tofino which is widening a cliff edge part of the road. This section has been a bad spot for accidents in the past.
