How dangerous is it to cross the intersections of Ballard?

In another interesting data piece from seattlepi.com, the intersection at 15th Ave NW and NW Market St in Ballard -- which probably has the widest amount of road to cross and has the heaviest amount of traffic -- was the only one from to make the list. Four car-on-pedestrian crashes occurred in the last three years; a significant number.

The top prize, however, went to the intersection at 3rd Ave and Pike St in downtown Seattle, which saw nine car-on-pedestrian crashes in the last three years.

The data was compiled using the state Department of Transportation collision records to see which Seattle intersections had the most car-on-pedestrian crashes in the past three years.
