Posted by Gold_12th on Tue Apr 22 00:18:43 2014 Orion VII hybrid 4445 The driver of an MTA local bus claims that he swerved to avoid running over a dog and as a result struck a utility pole and crashed into a fence on Monday morning near the former Brookfield Landfill on Arthur Kill Road at Cortelyou Avenue in Eltingville. The accident on the S74 carrying two passengers happened at 3:40 a.m. and no one on board -- including the driver -- claimed any injuries. The accident remains under investigation. The bus jumped a curb, struck a utility pole and then the fence, said MTA spokeswoman Judie Glave. http://www.silive.com/news/index.ssf/2014/04/bus_crashes_into_fence_in_elti.html#incart_river |
