Ocean parkway is the deadliest street in Brooklyn. Recall the woman who ran over a mother and two kids earlier this year. there are 500 street lights and 35 mph speed limit but many drivers are speeding. It should be a highway with overpasses for pedestrians to protect them.
People in Brooklyn dont respect traffic laws. People take stop signs and lights as a mere suggestion. Impatient drivers that jump into incoming traffic to go around you as you’re driving down the street. And others that fail to yield to pedestrians…south Brooklyn is the wild Wild West when is comes to driving.
They can still easily find you for vin you pos. Rot in prison.
So many fake temporary plates out there when is our politicians going to put a stop to this
