Does your routine car travel take you through any of the following intersections around Cedar Rapids or Iowa City? If so, you want to pay attention!

These are some of Cedar Rapids most dangerous crossroads, according to the Iowa Department of Transportation. The agency list of Top 200 Safety Improvement Candidate Locations includes these well-known hot-spots for fender-benders and more serious traffic accidents.

Cedar Rapids:


DEVONWOOD DR SW & KIRKWOOD BLVD SW 

IA 100/IOWA 100 & S 22ND ST   

WILSON AVE SW & 6TH ST SW  

WASHINGTON AVE SE & 15TH ST SE  

 

2010 seemed like a particularly bad year with a higher-than-average number of accidents. In Iowa City, Tuesday was the more accident-prone day, more than any other day of the week. Surprised? Maybe too many long weekends?

IOWA CITY:


IA 1/E BURLINGTON ST & S CLINTON ST  

For as dangerous as these roads in Linn and Johnson Counties can be, it pales by comparison to the traffic dangers in Davenport, the city that takes the number 1 and number 2 spot in most traffic accidents – even worse than Des Moines!

Davenport:

#1. US 6/W KIMBERLY RD & MARQUETTE ST 

#2. US 61/HARRISON ST & W LOCUST ST 

 

Let’s be careful out there!
