    Yes! Waxpool and LoCo Pkwy is finally #1. Up three spots from #3 in 2007. Always good to know a place you pass through every day of your life is the most dangerous in the county. Can anyone say "economic stimulus overpass"?

    Waxpool Rd./Loudoun Co. Pkwy (86)
    Route 7/Potomac View Rd. (61)
    Route 28/ Waxpool Rd. (56)
    Route 7/Route 659 (Belmont Ridge Rd.) (55)
    Route 50/Loudoun County Pkwy. (48)
    Route 7/ George Washington Blvd. (44)
    Old Ox Rd./Route 28 (40)

    Route 7- what a nightmare! 6 out of 10 of the most accidents?!! I'm not sure what the info tells us more about- the lousy fit between the intersection itself and the amount of traffic generated there, or the lousy, untrained, impatient, distracted "me first, me only" drivers that plague the roads between Leesburg and Ashburn...

    :huh:
