INJURIES AND DEATH INVADE NEW YORK

When it comes to New York Auto Accidents, March is coming in like a lion! A Queen?s driver died after his car hit a guardrail on the Long Island expressway-plunging off the exit ramp and landing below in a Flushing Meadows Park where the car burst into flames.

Another reported accident occurred when a police car and a sedan collided on 6th Avenue in the West Village. Witnesses reported not hearing police sirens or seeing flashing lights according to a story in the New York Daily News. The officer was reportedly responding to a call for an ?officer assist?. The patrol car suffered damage to its metal frame, which was characterized as severely bent, and airbags had been deployed. A witness located at a restaurant across the street from the accident indicated that the police were going fast when they crashed and he didn?t see anyone move from the cars. Four people were later hospitalized, but according to the NYPD Department of Public Information all of the injuries were minor. No further information was given.
