This has always been a very bad corner. not only not maintained well but two roads used as "short cuts" by many people hence higher rate of speeds then you should normally be travelling at and was a recipe for disaster just waiting to happen.

I know the corner well. Accidents happen when people push the envelope in order to shave a few seconds off their commute.

Its not blind, but everyone clips along pretty quickly and the intersection kind of sneaks up on you.

Listen, I have been snuck up upon by poles, ditches, red lights, bridge abuttments and other immovable objects. I have gone through that intersection many times, especially on my way home from Little Mountain Park (another Winnipeg oxymoron) and it does sneak up on you.

Geez...what the hell could a few signs cost anyway?

Somebody's asleep at the switch it seems.

making it a 4 way stop and the stop signs maybe have those blinking red lights on top might help... But they would also need to maintain it better.

Why do people always blame the road or the street for their driving .

It's reported that the truck possibly went through a stop sign and T-boned a van.
