I pray and look in all directions when I am at this intersection.About 2 times per week someone pulls out in front of me or my family members. Please do something to make this intersection safer!

Something needs to be done about this corner. It is a crapshoot everytime you pass through it.

The fatality was a 16 yr old female high school student from Lyndon - Kerensa Ward. I agree that this is a dangerous intersection but I don't know what could be done to make it any safer. I always slow down to about 50 when I'm coming up to the intersection from the north or south, & look closely at the drivers stopped on the east & west sides. I do this because I know how dangerous it can be. But what about the drivers just passing through?
