Dangerous intersections

To me, the ironic part of this sidebar from our local paper is that I've driven the intersections MANY times ... and never once felt unsafe at them. Maybe because I'm used to them ... and I know how drivers are in those areas, so I am extra cautious....?

STILL ... it would be very nice if they were corrected....

Main article about dangerous intersections in the area:

Anyone else encounter these type of intersections regularly?

just driving in the poconos is dangorus, everyone drives like its the city, with chuckholes that could swallow the monte up to the axle everywhere. then theres route 80 from deleware water gap up to about bartonsville, its a 2-lane each way nightmare, in a heavy merge zone with tons of holes. just ask blacksheep, lol

There is an intersection in OKC that is known to have an accident atleast once a week. I was even told that it is so bad that once a car drove into the store there. THat before my time.

Yes the Poconos are a dangerous place to drive. I never really have problems with 80, but I'm also always commuting it at about 9pm so I miss all of that ESU garbage.

Plus it's a highway set to 50mph with double fine zones
