Gee, I Guess That First Accident Wasn't Just a Fluke
The city of Newark, New Jersey has finally erected concrete barriers to prevent cars from plunging into the Passaic River at a specific section of road. A total of five people have died at the location--three last November and two more early Sunday. When asked about the timeliness of the crash prevention measures, Mayor Sharpe James said, "Really, our hands are tied until at least four people die. Those barricades aren't cheap, you know." Source
