The car is on the side walk and this person is saying “tEACh yOuR kIdS to Be STreEt SMarT”

You people need to stop assuming the driver was speeding. Maybe the driver was having a medical emergency. Anyone who knows Jamaica Ave knows that speeding in that area is nearly impossible due to too much traffic in that area. Let’s show some compassion and pray for ALL involved.

Those commenting about the cop not wearing a mask need to STFU, that’s literally insignificant compared to two people getting hit by a car and fighting for their lives

My heart breaks for this loss... If it wasn’t the driver’s fault then whose was it? Because from where i’m standing and i’m pretty sure alot of others will agree with me, how that car should’ve never been able to hit someone let alone climb onto that street from that angle unless they were speeding down that street and lost control of the wheel when reaching the main street. Damn RIP to those two souls taken so soon
