There is some science to decide what intersections in Illinois are more dangerous than others. Statistically, the most perilous in the Land of Lincoln has a collision rate exceeding all others with nearly 200 collisions and if you've driven through it, you know why.
Do you consider Time Magazine to be a reputable source? It's certainly one of the most famous. Would you believe that they have suddenly chosen one innocent-looking Missouri intersection as one of the 11 most dangerous in America?
As I drive in the City of Quincy I come across intersections that are difficult to navigate through and others that are pretty easy. With a town of 42-thousand people it amazes me how many people seem to be at these crossroads no matter what time of day it is.
