New statistics from the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia point to Dogwood Street as Campbell River's worst when it comes to car crashes.

ICBC released new figures this week, marking Dogwood Street with nearly 500 crashes between 2017 and last year.

The north end of Dogwood at the Island Highway intersection saw the most incidents at 72.

The intersection of the Inland Island Highway and Willis Road was listed in second with 61, followed by Dogwood and 2nd avenue with 53, Island Highway and Shoppers Row by Robert Ostler Park at third with 52, the Inland Island Highway and Jubilee had 51, the opposite end of Jubilee Parkway had 43, Merecroft at Dogwood had 40, 16th avenue and Dogwood had 35, Hilchey Road and Dogwood at 34, and 16 avenue and Tamarac Street rounded out the top ten at 32.

As to where exactly the incidents took place, the data is not 100 per cent accurate due to rounding errors, and because verifying every location is not always possible.
