Dangerous intersection

Hugs and prayers to the families ❤️🙏🙏🙏❤️
That has always been a dangerous intersection
My thoughts and prayers go out to the family. I’m really hoping that something is actually done about this intersection because way too many people have been injured or killed at that intersection.
Will be missed both of them 
Thanks for sharing. Shouldn’t it say the Mack was going east or west on 52? Or wasn’t it by Gooseneck?
Not clear. Was this at the intersection north of the river or the one to the south at the turn to Hurdsfield? Thanks.
There should be a four-way stop there
Need a roundabout there I guess.
