It's where Vineland Ave, Lankershim Blvd and Camarillo St intersect. It's a crazy light situation and it's hard to figure out where to go. I guess that's what happens when a street, avenue and boulevard intersect, it creates a black hole.
Gah, I know this intersection well (a good friend lives on Peachgrove not too far away) I hate this intersection!

I don't know if this is the scariest, several years back, on a very foggy friday night (I was not driving) and my friend was on 101 S, just coming out of one of the turns before you reach Army (now Cesar Chavez), he was speeding, and as we rounded the curve and saw the straightaway, nothing but brake lights in all lanes, traffic dead stopped. He his the brakes, the road was wet, and we ended up whacking a car in front of us and then turned around facing the wrong direction on the side of the road. Seatbelts are a good thing.
