Same exact spot as the last one this week!! Think they will do something this time! Looks like multiple injuries as well! Not a good accident at all
Again?! Wasn’t there an accident in this same exact spot a few days ago….
Elizabeth Catelli yup on saturday today is much worse 3 ambulances and one guy is laying on the ground so crazy I’m standing at my kitchen door watching the while thing
Reported 3 injuries
We need it to be a 4-way stop or a blinking light!
Ocean County Scanner News been saying this and my daughter crossed there everyday!
Ocean County Scanner News that’s good idea to prevent from the accidents
Julio R Caceres Jr. We have been trying to have something done for years bad spot for accidents here been here 10 years
Ocean County Scanner News 4 way stop with a blinking light
We need it to be a 4-way stop or a blinking light!
Ocean County Scanner News traffic safety needs to be contacted asap! This intersection is so unsafe!
This is right by wawa?? Can’t put a light there 50 feet from another light
Gary Dzielinski but they can do blinking stop signs!!!!
Easy fix may not stop all but will definitely help some
Jennifer Atkinson exactly was just discussing that!! Definitely a blinking stop sign!!!
Jennifer Atkinson maybe start a petition stating something needs to be done there!?!
Mary Batot- Degnan
People develop driving habits based on locations. Other people tend to pick it up and copy. The only way to break the habit is to have the police babysit the spot.
Billie Morgan what are you talking about. A blinking light will significantly help this intersection people just dont see it too busy trying to beat the lights.
No its become a habit for drivers to not take that intersection seriously. People adjust their driving based on location. Some will always expect to do 15 over on some roads and 5 over on others. At some red lights the first vehicle will always try to turn left in front of an opposite vehicle on the other side going straight that has the right of way. Flashing lights may help, but it will still happen. We went through that here. Flashing stop signs that you can see 500 feet away and yet we still have accidents. I guarantee that the person that is responsible in this accident is local and has gone through that intersection hundreds of times.
Well anything will make me feel better god forbid one comes through my house one day. I’ve already had someone hit the tree in my front yard at this intersection because of running the stop sign. If the big tree wasnt there in front of my house he would have took out my kitchen where my daughter and I were at the time
Well I would put some very large boulders there, or something. You could complain to the police, but a video camera recording all the drivers running the sign and posted to YouTube or a local Facebook group may be more effective.
I would rather start with a blinking stop sign and see where that gets us and also I rent I’m not paying to have boulders put in when the Township is perfectly capable of fixing the problem. They just choose not too or at least until someone gets killed there then maybe something will be done
People don’t see the Stop signs and because of type of road, they don’t expect it there. Definitely needs flashing lights. I used to work in a traffic safety business
Trish Brophy thank you!
Mary Batot- Degnan is this the one you just saw?
Joe Varga yes but it looked like just one car that hit the tree can’t be sure I didn’t see it I was getting gas but it was so loud . The car was smoking from the hood
Mary Batot- Degnan there were 2 cars involved I’m thinking the suv ran the stop sign and the other car looked like it was hit head on with an older couple all 3 people went to hospital it happened in front of my house
The accident on saturday same outcome the car that ran the stop sign wound up in the same spot just didnt hit tree but stop sign taken out both times
Jennifer Atkinson hope they are ok , I only herd the crash was at the wawa & saw just the car in the tree ????
The guy in the suv was laying on the ground conscious it seemed for sometime before they took him so crazy definately one of the worse for surr
Never the drivers fault…lol what about all the others that make it safely through there?
Paul Hewitt trust me there is more people that run that stop sign on a daily basis than people realize we see if happen all the time. A lot of times I wonder if people are actually gonna stop. I’ve almost been hit turning into my driveway which is a few feet from the intersection from people flying up Adams both directions
Jennifer Atkinson or the one last year with the GFx fencing truck?
I was one of the first on scene during that accident I helped get a little girl out of the car under the truck scary day!
????????????
Only one responsible for these daily car wrecks are the driver(s) who caused it
Right where the wawa driveway is.. a blinking stop sign wont help cuz people dont look..they’re in too much of a rush
If you pull out of Wawa & make a left on Garfield, you have the right of way in that intersection. It’s the traffic on Adams that are supposed to stop.
I had just walked through that intersection on Saturday maybe 10 mins before the accident. Adams & Coolidge isn’t much butter. I’ve been here 4 months and have seen at least 2 accidents & one guy just blow through the stop sign and almost get his by 2 cars.
