Which country out of those three is in your opinion safest to rent a car and travel alone through inlcuding rural areas. Also which country has the most advanced infrastructure and english fluency is most common?
There might be some difference here and there, but none of those 3 countries are what I'd call "safe", especially for someone coming from Europe. People travel there every year and are just fine, but some aren't, it's all stats. The problems with statistics is that they don't tell you whether you'll be in the 99% who'll be fine, or the 1% who won't.
1% is still veeeeeery exaggerated...
In the case of Brazil, with 6 million tourists per year, it would be 60 thousand people assaulted. Imagine Mexico!
Obviously for the kind of tourism the OP is talking about, it's more recommendable to make with organized tours.

I only don’t recomend you in Brazil travel by car around Rio de Janeiro state it is pretty unsafe there nowadays but in another states is much safer, being rural areas safer than cities.
English in Brazil is rare found people really fluent, out of business people or out of big cities, but everybody understand basic words as example if you need order something at a restaurant.
Infrastructure (roads?) is first world in Sao Paulo, (the main roads) ok in south Brazil or Minas Gerais but bad in north and northeast Brazil.

What do you mean by first world standard? Similar to german roads or the polish ones because both of those countries would probably be considered first world but trust me the difference is immense . But I would assume roads in Brazil should be good, considering that it is very warm climate there.

I never been in Poland so i can't compare, but i meant the roads are good, not really different what north americans and westerner europeans are used drive.
Look at the examples below the first is the main road conecting inner São Paulo the capital city and the coastal beaches cities, the seccond is the main road connecting São Paulo city and countrysides cities.

Roads here seem definitely better than in Poland. I thoguht it would be like that. You guys don't have winter there, good, very warm climate so it should be easy to maintenance.

yeah probably it helps, São Paulo is not that warm all year long, but winters are much milder than central Europe. May be only the lots of rains in the summer causes holes in the roads, i am not knowleged in this area
