Bicycle Accidents in New York
Accidents involving bicyclists—especially young riders—remain a significant concern in New York communities. Incidents like Thursday’s crash in Monsey underscore the vulnerability of cyclists on shared roads, particularly in areas like Route 306, where both vehicle and pedestrian traffic are common.
In this case, the fact that a teenager was struck highlights the importance of safe riding practices, proper street lighting, and driver attentiveness—especially during evening hours.
