Description

Montrose Avenue at Carlton Avenue - Resident was at the corner at 6:45 PM - he was attempting to cross the street and a car was speeding at him, he was trying to avoid that car which was coming from Summit Avenue down Carlton heading west towards Tonnele. He tried to move out of the way and a car that was parked at deli on 50 Carlton pulled out of spot in reverse and struck him while in the crosswalk and knocked him down. Resident had to go to hospital. He called 911 to report incident. Hospital observed him for his back and hip. He landed in the street in front of an oncoming car and had to roll out of the way.
This being said, this corner needs to have a traffic light installed. Neighborhood association has been requesting one for years, resident does not know why requests have been ignored for approximately 30 years. He lives there for 49 years.
