22X was never over capacity, but it was a dangerous and poorly designed road even before it went from being a county road to a feeder route.

I don't really even know if the lack of capacity is causing the safety issues on Deerfoot. I don't have any stats really, but I would imagine that most of the worst accidents are happening when people are driving at full speeds (i.e. not during rush hour and the road isn't operating at capacity). Accidents that happen during rush hour but they are "usually" more of a fender-bender type (rear-end, side-swipe due to bad merge, etc), but there is always exceptions of course.
