Lake Country's most dangerous intersection is at Highway 97 and Beaver Lake Road, while West Kelowna's is at Highway 97 and Boucherie Road.

Cst. Kris Clark warns that though these locations see the most crashes, all intersections can pose a risk. Some major causes for intersection crashes include drivers using electronic devices and aggressive driving behaviours such as tailgating, speeding, and trying to beat yellow lights.
