The most dangerous highway exits in your area?

In Southern CA, the 110 freeway in the Pasadena area is one of the oldest highway segments in the state - most of it was built in the 1930s when the speed limit was 35 mph...Most of the on and off ramps are still the same length - maybe 60 feet...The exit speed is still 5 or 10 mph...The speed limit now is 55 mph...The on ramps are controlled by stop signs...The highway is 3 lanes each direction with virtually no shoulders in the center or on the side...It is quite curvy with more than a few blind spots...One of the most dangerous roads anywhere.
