Pedestrian, 88, Fatally Struck by Queens Driver Making an Illegal Turn

Queens, NYC – An 88-year-old male pedestrian was fatally struck by a Honda Fit driven by a 52-year-old driver, who made an illegal turn out of a parking lot on Northern Boulevard near 147th Street Monday night. The victim was transported to New York-Presbyterian Hospital-Queens, where he was pronounced dead.

Backing and parking are moments when drivers need to focus their full attention on the driving environment. Since they’re not traveling at a high rate of speed, drivers often lose their focus which is always critical for safety.
