HUNTSVILLE’S MOST DANGEROUS INTERSECTIONS

Intersections should be one of the safest times while driving, as cars and motorcycles are required to slow down and follow basic driving safety. Many intersections in Huntsville, however, have a myriad of issues.

  • Large amounts of traffic can block visibility, primarily when two large roads are intersecting. 

  • Many old signs can be difficult to read or confusing signage. 

  • Crosswalks that are not well-lit 

  • Obstruction due to the layout of the road, i.e., when there is a hill involved. 

When you are driving through Huntsville, AL, you will likely encounter some of these issues at the following intersections. 

  1. Old Madison Pike and Research Park Boulevard

  2. Jordan Lane and University Drive

  3. University Drive and Memorial Parkway (travelling south)
