This is the street right next to CSUN. Reseda is very busy, all the time and there is a crosswalk there (right next to Chipotle). Students are constantly crossing this very busy street and it is especially dangerous at night since there is not enough light to spot a pedestrian on this busy street.

Another reader who didn't want to be named took issue with the Nordhoff and Winnetka

On Nordhoff Street or Winnetka Avenue, speed is 45 and the streets are long between lights, lots of people speed through theses streets, and the intersection is most of the time bad, because of high speeds.

Please check out the map above for more reader-generated problem intersections and freeway spots.
