Accident #35


Thursday, March 20, 2008, 12:35 p.m. Same spot, same t-bone. A system of traffic lights, controlled with sophisticated software to regulate traffic, seems the most cost-effective way to stop these constant accidents at this t-bone and at the many others on the BQE here and the FDR Drive in Manhattan.
