There's a really nasty one near where I live, but it probably wouldn't qualify as deadly, since it's a fairly low-speed intersection. Several "main roads" come together with very few stop signs, yield signs, or lane markings. It's commonly called "Chicken Corner". It isn't too bad during the day or on weekends, but I won't go near it during rush hour.

Re: 10 deadliest intersections in America!
We have a couple real bad ones here in my city but none that made the list...
#9 is in my state though by NewOrleans and I can vouch for that it is awful

Re: 10 deadliest intersections in America!
I'm shocked there isn't one from Atlanta on there.
Traffic has gotten really uglier than usual in the last 6 months. Everyday they are breaking in on the TV about a fatality crash or a tractor trailer jackknifing somewhere.
I looked at the ones from my state and I can vouch for everyone they listed.

Re: 10 deadliest intersections in America!
Two of Tulsa's interesections made #5 and #6 and believe me, these are really bad. You have to wait at least 20 seconds after the light changes to green before going so all of the red light runners can get through! And all five of Oklahoma's worst intersections are in Tulsa too and they are one intersection after another!

Re: 10 deadliest intersections in America!
Connecticut didn't make the list either. I know of one on the way to my mom's house. It's right off of an exit ramp where traffic has to merge so I'm always careful there.

Re: 10 deadliest intersections in America!
There are three listed for Minnesota, not too far from me, but I consider many others just as bad. There's one we call 'spaghetti junction' and that should explain it. There's a lot of truck rollovers and other accidents there.
