This. I pass one everyday on my commute to work. I'm always extra careful crossing that intersection. Its a somewhat blind intersection, with a stop sign on my end and cars parked all along the busy cross street. You almost have to get out 10 feet infront of the stop sign into a lane to see past the cars. Cars also fly through that area. Always makes me thing twice when I pass it.
