VIDEO: As reported on our News Alerts on Friday, a pedestrian was struck on Kennedy Boulevard just before Shabbos, making it the 5th pedestrian accident in six days.
The accident occurred at the intersection of Kennedy Boulevard and Lexington Avenue at approximately 4 PM, just one block east of Sunday’s hit and run pedestrian accident. The vehicle’s mirror was knocked off after it struck the pedestrian.
The patient, a woman, was transported by EMS Paramedics to Jersey Shore Medical Center with a serious head injury.
LPD’s Traffic and Safety department investigated the incident.
Except for the jeep, why are’nt any of the other vehicles or drivers mentioned..?
That block has accidents all the time. May hashem keep us all safe
Because the jeep committed a CRIME by not stopping. I bet if the others didn’t either stop they would have been listed.
will people ever start to drive just a drop slower & more careful for the sake of human lives? will we ever learn from these tragic events? how bad does the situation need to get C”V for us to learn about safety & take extra precautions?
MAY this be the last tragedy to occur
It’s bad news again,
It’s time to put the overpass for pedestrian on Rt 9 when people going to ShopRite!!
that’s right, keep on building in Lakewood & add to the overpopulation & the cars & situations like this will continue to increase and worsen!
i need to say thanks to our EMS people, you see stuff some of do not even want to think of and to deal with all of this day in and out. You deserve to all be commended somehow.
i hope you are there for me if I ever need it.
it is such a shame all these accidents and people hurt. can we remind the pedestrians to slow down and take their time as well. we yell at the drivers but the peds need to be more responcable as well. god bless lakewood
