The intersection appears to be this one: https://www.google.com/maps/place/NE+Weidler+%26+24th,+Portland,+OR+97232/@45.534265,-122.641283,13z/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x5495a0cbddac982f:0x76b42bda29253e39!8m2!3d45.534265!4d-122.641283!16s%2Fg%2F1wf389_0?gl=us
It's a poor traffic design for sure.
Not a great intersection, but its got to be a 25mph speed limit. And 15 before the T intersection. Should probably have some speed bumps on the road to keep people from speeding which is probably what the actual issue is. Also a flashing yellow might be a good idea especially at night.
