      Are you kidding me? A beautiful thing just happened but the bycilcalist was disobeying the law and riding opposite direction of traffic. It’s time the city starts cracking down on them, it’s unsafe for drivers and pedestrians

  • we love Empire Grill

    That is Moshe from Empire Grill. A real Mentch. Chazak V’ematz Moshe and may you always make a kiddush Hashem!

    I saw the accident happen. The pedestrian is one of the most mentchlich and eirlich guys.
    The guy on the bike had no business going the wrong way down Kingston ave and especially not at the speed he was going.. glad they are both ok tho.. it could have ended horribly the way the guys flew into traffic

    Nobody noticed that the pedestrian crossed when it was red? They were both responsible. The cyclist going the wrong way and the pedestrian for crossing on red. You can clearly see that traffic is still going up Kingston when he tries to cross which means he had a red light.

  • Why does religion matter?

    And, how do we actually know the bicyclist isn’t Jewish? Did someone do some matrilineal-line research and check for his circumcision?

    Enough with the unnecessary information.

  • lol

    ha! you can see the woman who was walking run away from the accident rather then assisting those in need… so sad that jews cant help each other.
