big accident on the 17

The 17 is the main road that everyone takes to go up to the country it goes to CGI NY and Monticello and most of the other bungalow colonies.

Everyone going up to the country now is sitting in a massive parking lot, the traffic backed up onto the NY State Thruway.

NYS Thruway radio reported that there has been a serious accident that is causing all this.

At one point during the wait a whole group of cars with lights and sirens came rushing by on the shoulder, they looked like out local Hatzala volunteers, who rushed up and guided traffic to alternative routes.
