While I she agree that 8-11 is an exaggeration, it is easy to get up to 7: 1 right turn lane, 2 though lanes, 2 left turn lanes, and then 2 more through lanes in the opposite direction. Those aren't common in areas with lots of pedestrians, but I do see them all the time in other areas which do have cross walks (with traffic lights, if course) which I have seen used on occasion. Sometimes these even cross highways with 60 MPH (100 KPH) speed limits.
