Insurer AAMI has released its annual list of Australia’s worst collision hot-spots, showing improvement in some areas and several repeat offenders.
Thousands of insurance claims were analysed across the country to compile the list, with the insurer finding the same old black spots continue to appear in the list for some states.
In Melbourne, Springvale Road in Glen Waverly again features at the top of the list while the same road at Springvale also remains steady as the third-worst collision hot spot in Victoria.
Plenty Road in Bundoora and Bell Street in Preston retained their positions from last year, while Doncaster Road in Doncaster has been displaced in the top five by the Princes Highway in Dandenong.
For Sydney, last year’s list has gone out the window with the Hume Highway at Liverpool now the state’s most crash-prone road.
In fact, last year’s crash leader - the Pacific Highway at Chatswood - has improved to number 5 in the list, ahead of Epping Road, North Ryde (fourth), Princes Highway, Rockdale (third) and the M4 Motorway at Parramatta (second).
