Cyclist Injured, Possibly by Car

No one called the police when a bicyclist allegedly got hit by a car on North Broadway; the victim was treated for multiple injuries.

On Nov. 24 at 9:30 p.m. a man came into Tarrytown Police headquarters reporting he believed he was hit by a car while riding his bicycle on North Broadway near the Post Office around 5 p.m. that day.

The man had allegedly been riding northbound when he was suddenly knocked to the ground. He said he did not remember a particular car hitting him but bystanders who came to his aid reportedly asked him, “Did that car just hit you?”

The man was able to make his way home after the accident. But then he was transported by his wife to Phelps Memorial Hospital emergency room where he was apparently treated for a fractured left collar bone and a cut above his left eye that required stitches.

No witness information was available, but the victim wanted the report filed in case a witness did call police with any more information for further investigation.

According to Lieutenant William Herguth no witnesses called to follow up with police, neither did anyone call police at the time of the alleged incident.

“There was no report of it other than him reporting it to us,” Herguth said.

A big part of the problem is that the teachers' expectations about what supplies are necessary haveRead More become so extreme. When my kids were in school in Tarrytown, we would get a list at the beginning of every school year of the supplies we needed to buy. The parents were asked to buy a separate looseleaf binder for every single class our kids were taking and, for some classes, they asked for a looseleaf AND a spiral notebook. When I was in school, each kid had ONE looseleaf and we separated classes with dividers. Having SIX or seven loose leafs adds to backpack weight and costs a lot of money. My kids supply bills were often close to $100 apiece. The teachers have bought into this idea that all of these supplies are necessary and they are not. I'm not surprised that Staples is offering "rewards programs." Their advertising and marketing efforts have convinced the teachers that you must have a package of 12 red correcting pens, per child.
