A dangerous junction is an intersection that has a traffic sign which indicates a high rate of traffic collisions. This tag should be used only in cases that a danger of traffic collisions is warned by a traffic sign.
How to map
Tagging can be applied to the intersection node or the location of the signage:
- Place a node at the location of the dangerous junction traffic sign, tagged
traffic_sign=hazard(or code) +hazard=dangerous_junction. - Tag a node along a
highway=*way
at the location of the sign - Tag the at the intersection of the two or more
highway=*ways that make up the dangerous intersection.

This sign simply means we have priority at the next junction. It does not mean the junction is dangerous. Use highway=priority instead.
