Big metropolitan cities like Los Angeles offer numerous perks to their residents. But Los Angeles is also home to some of the most dangerous intersections. Los Angeles consistently ranks among the most congested cities in the United States.
The city's population of over 4 million people, as well as its extensive freeway system and sprawling urban area, contribute to heavy traffic congestion. Its congested roads and heavy traffic patterns make it difficult for the daily commuters to reach their destinations.
Every rider on the road has the basic legal responsibility to operate their vehicles safely, taking into consideration road conditions, weather conditions, and the presence of other vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists. But, even then accident happens and some roads have a bad reputation for being dangerous.

Several factors contribute to making any road/intersection safe and unsafe. Roads with high traffic volume tend to have a higher likelihood of accidents.
