Accidents can happen anywhere: from incidents at theme parks to a slip-and-fall at a restaurant or an injury at a friend's home from a damaged railing or missing step. However, there are certain […]
When traveling in certain areas, it is always a good idea to be aware of those intersections that are rated the most dangerous in terms of auto accidents. This knowledge allows drivers and pedestrians to keep their eyes and ears open in order to be prepared for the unforeseen to happen at any moment. Some of the most dangerous intersections in the Dallas-Fort Worth area include the following:

While many of these intersections are either undergoing improvements or will do so in the coming years, drivers and pedestrians need to be aware of these car crash hot spots. The best way to protect yourself is to be fully aware of those intersections where accidents occur most often. This does not mean you do not exercise caution at all intersections but rather that you need to exercise more caution in those spots where accidents are proven more likely to occur.
The state has installed traffic cameras in many of these intersections. The images one can gather from these can be instrumental in showing which party caused the accident. This information is not only helpful for insurance companies but is also beneficial to the police in determining the responsible party and whether they need to assess charges against the liable party.
Another thing that is very important to keep in mind right now is that a great deal of road construction is currently in progress on LBJ and I-35E (if you drive in North Dallas, I'm sure you're already aware). This construction has changed the structure in existence at many of the highway’s intersections and will continue to be a problem until the completion of the LBJ Express project.
By pointing out these Dallas accident hot spots, we hope to reduce the number of car accident injuries in our community. As more drivers become aware, less risks are taken. As more city officials (and the TxDOT) become aware, the faster we can resolve these safety issues.
