A recent podcast by Advance/SILive.com uncovered alarming unsafe driving habits on Hylan Boulevard, highlighting its status as Staten Island's most dangerous road. Over a five-hour vigil monitoring traffic, the team observed reckless behaviors, including illegal bus lane usage and blatant disregard for traffic signals. These actions contribute to the cycle of dangerous conditions, revealing that a significant number of vehicle fatalities result from impatience and a failure to yield at intersections, stressing the urgent need for improved traffic safety measures.
People were riding in that bus lane, going through the light straight ahead, not turning, just simply trying to cut people off, and beat the traffic.
When examining the root causes of pedestrian fatalities, the failure to yield the right of way emerges as a major factor.
