The "Pittsburgh Left"

Lots of very late yellows and running reds as cars from either direction on Victoria cross the long distance to the other side. Turning left off Victoria in either direction also can be interesting if someone is turning left from the opposite direction - it's hard to get a sense of how far into the intersection you should advance as you wait for the way to clear, and often the left-turner opposite you has advanced too far.

If there were more people walking there, there would be more collisions. Cars turning left from Victoria Street onto West at 50+ km/h are a huge danger to people legally crossing in the crosswalk.
