A blind intersection is a place where roads cross and do not provide a good field of view of the traffic about to cross your path. Thus, you enter the intersection "blind" to any approaching vehicles. This can be a very dangerous situation even at moderate driving speeds.

In California, a "blind intersection" is an intersection when you cannot see at least 100 ft in both directions on the intersecting road.

An intersection would be considered blind if you cannot see the cross traffic coming. This can happen if there is an obstruction in the way such as trees, bushes, a snowbank or other vehicles.

A blind intersection is an intersection where you can't see either the other cars or beyond the intersection. This is a situation where you need to be extra cautious.
