This image has been archived or removed.
[Photo: GMD Three]The Counterfeit Triangle in Chinatown is certainly prone to car accidents, and there has been no shortage of those in recent months. Remember the driver who suffered a seizure and plowed into an accessory shop? Or last week on Canal Street, when National Guard trucks reportedly ran the red and plowed over an elderly man while crossing. Earlier this morning, another collision transpired one block south at Centre and Walker, though thankfully not fatal.
A taxicab was seen crashing into an SUV at 1:30 am. The cabbie and both victims were all reportedly okay.
