City of Toronto Identifies Worst Intersections for Cyclists & Drivers

The City of Toronto recently released an updated list of the most dangerous intersections for cyclists and drivers. The list is based on collision and accident data collected over the past 4 years. While many cycling related accidents go unreported, the information remains as a warning to proceed with caution when navigating through intersections.

Unsurprising, there is no crossover between the lists for cyclists and drivers. In general, cycling-related accidents happen to take place in denser parts of the city whereas vehicle collisions are more common roads with numerous traffic lanes typically found outside of the core.
