Police say it appears the driver, a 61-year-old woman, got frustrated by a slow car ahead of her, so she tried going around by driving in the bike lane. That’s when she lost control of the car.
NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — One person died and several were injured after a vehicle crashed into a restaurant’s outdoor dining area in Queens on Thursday. It happened around 7:45 p.m. at 35th Street near Ditmars Boulevard. Police say the driver was trying to cut off the car in front of her when she lost control and slammed into restaurant Rosatoro’s seating structure, taking a tree down with her. “It looked like it kinda accelerated,” one witness said.
