Refining the Data to Fix LA’s Worst Intersections for Bicyclists

In two days, our map of LA’s Worst Intersections for Bicyclists got over 1000 views and mapped nearly 35 intersections where bicyclists dread to ride. This outpouring of info has been invaluable.
In hopes of refining the data we’ve been getting, we’re now specifically looking to map intersections where incidents like hit-and-runs, collisions, and harassment are occurring but going unreported to the police. Also, places where motorists are breaking the law regularly and putting bicyclists in danger. If we can find out where these locations are, we can pass them on to the LAPD, who can help us make these intersections safer for bicyclists through more enforcement and possible sting operations.
So let us know, where have you been involved in an incident in the past or where do you regularly witness dangerous driver behavior?
