If you've been around the intersection of US 54 and State Line Road then you know just how dangerous it really is. That intersection is even more dangerous at night than it is during the day. I remember thinking the exact same thing when I had been out there for a Christmas party one evening.

Luckily, there were not very many cars passing by when I had to get through the intersection. I am sure others can also firmly agree that something needs to change in that area. People who travel on that road are hauling a** and make it difficult for other drivers.
