The roundabouts at Lee and Whitmore Lake roads in Green Oak Township have made the list of Top 20 Most Dangerous Intersections in Michigan. The roundabouts, located just off U.S. 23 near Costco and the Green Oak Village Place mall, have been controversial with area drivers since they opened.
According to the 2022 report, there were 71 total crashes and 5 injuries at the west roundabout at that intersection.
And while the intersection’s ranking has dropped from the No. 7 most dangerous in 2020 to No. 20 in 2022, the number of crashes there have increased by 8, from 63 on the 2020 report to 71 on the 2022 report, and the number of injuries has increased, as well, from 1 to 5.
The list, put together by Michigan Auto Law, uses data from the Michigan State Police Traffic Crash Reporting Unit. Each list uses traffic data from the previous year.
The top three intersections on the list are located in Macomb County.
