Not the road

Poor driving. You can't blame the road all the time. Set up cameras at Bethlehem and enforce speeding and poor driving. That will stop at least 50% of the accidents.
Another intersection

Fancy this road having the temerity to once again play a significant part in this accident! Really? I wholly agree with The Sage and Angel74 though. The 'best' and 'safest' built road in the world will never compensate for poor/inattentive driving.
