Vancouver Sun report: BC's most dangerous intersections

A pretty neat feature from the Vancouver sun including lots of charts and interactive maps: http://www.vancouversun.com/news/crash/index.html

Most dangerous intersections are:
1. Knight Bridge offramp onto SW Marine Drive
2. Burraurd St. offramp onto Pacific Blvd
3. 1st Ave. On/Offramp onto Hwy 1
4. Granville and 41st
5. Main and Terminal

lol at the Richmond city map, its covered in purple dots: http://www.vancouversun.com/news/crash/index10.html

haha. and you guys bitch about having to pay higher insurance than us in the interior.

the big 4 in the 604 (van, bby, rmd, sry) account for about 230,000 crashes


the okanagan accounts for about 20,000.

the big 4 have a population of 1.4million and claim 230k crashes

kelowna/vernon/penticton is about 200k and claim 20k we will round up to 21k crashes

the big 4 in the 604 claimed 1 crash per 6 people
the okanagan claimed 1 crash per 9.5 people


so you are MORE LIKELY to get in an accident in the 604 than in the okanagan

= higher insurance rates.
