Editorial: Time for action
Enough is enough!
The death of an elderly woman on Fourth Avenue at 82nd Street struck on Tuesday morning by a turning car as she crossed in the crosswalk with the light brings to three the number of people critically injured or killed while attempting to traverse the thoroughfare in Bay Ridge since February.
This most recent incident follows closely the death of a woman struck by a car at 86th and Fourth earlier in April, and the severe injuries sustained by Xaverian student Matthew Garry when he was knocked down by a hit-and-run vehicle at Fourth and 78th in mid-February.
