Which directions were these cars going? How did this happen? Did someone pass a red light? Speed alone will not cause a collision.

D looked what u missed by moving, u would have had a perfect view!
Traffic calm
An accident after the “traffic calm”
I think there are a a little less accidents,
But 1- why did they pick and choose where to put a pedestrian island. why does’nt Kingston and albany get one?
2- Boruch Hashem bikers realized the big danger of dirving a bike on a street with cars, I hope the few people that use it wont get hurt.
I hope everyone is OK!
safe driver
the 2 most annoying drivers are the “Nissan Maxima’s” and teh “Taxi’s”.
Taxis think their the only drivers,
Maximas drive like idiots.

So much for the DOT’s new Empire Blvd. road design preventing accidents.

Thank G-d it wasn’t Jewish drivers and Black cars parked-there would have been a riot.
