Placentia intersections ranked by reported crashes
10 confirmed surface-street junctions in Placentia, Orange County, carrying 137 reported crashes between them in 2023 and 2024. 10 junctions were attempted here and 10 could be confirmed by two independent sources; the rest were dropped rather than guessed at.
This is a count of reported crashes, not a measure of risk. It is not adjusted for traffic volume, and a difference of two or three crashes between neighbouring rows is within ordinary year-to-year variation rather than a real gap. It says nothing about fault or about any individual claim.
