From Gothamist, Sept. 11:
A 13-year-old cyclist is in critical condition after being struck by a van in Borough Park earlier this morning. According to police, the boy was biking east on 47th Street at around 5:42 a.m. when he collided with a Honda van traveling southbound on 12th Avenue through the intersection. The victim was rushed to Lutheran Medical center, and the driver remained at the scene. According to the NYPD spokesman, there is no criminality suspected.
An FDNY spokesman said the boy was transported to the hospital by a Haztolah ambulance, and as a result had no details on the boy’s condition.
“No criminality suspected”?
Again, a driver’s license is a license to kill. James Bond has nothing on New York City motorists.
