Car Flipped On It’s Side Near PS 102 Today And Not One Politician Mentioned It
This morning around 7:20 am, Bay Ridge residents shared that a vehicle was flipped on the corner of Ridge Blvd & 72nd Street across from PS 102.
The flipped vehicle hit into two parked cars and damaged them.
This intersection has had crashes before because cars are running lights and there isn’t enforcement.
Ridgites reported this location in the past, but they were told that nothing needed to be changed.
Thank you to all who shared what happened, posted photos and reported this location. It’s going to take a lot to stop the reckless driving on our streets.
WHAT DID LOCAL LEADERS SAY ABOUT A FLIPPED VEHICLE NEAR PS 102?
NOTHING
Not one elected leader was outraged that a vehicle flipped outside of a school on a school day. We are lucky that it happened before children were in the area.
Not one politician representing Bay Ridge wrote about this incident on social media. Do you know why? It isn’t important to them – their children do not attend PS 102 and they don’t live there.
Councilwoman Santosuosso posted a photo of herself today.

Senator Gounardes posted about NYC’s Summer Program (which has nothing to do with NYS gov.)
The streets in our community have increasingly become less safe. We’ve allowed our politicians to ignore the street problems and play with lobbyists (for the cameras) and post silly photos and videos on social media, instead of making changes to the streets.
When will you care Bay Ridge? When someone we know dies.

March 24, 2026Dr. Larry He – Why Is He Posting Signs at the Train Station?
Dr. Liming He (aka Larry He) is running against Senator Steve Chan.
Larry was seen at the 79th street D train station hanging his posters.
Liming He is the chief-of-staff to Bill Colton. Why doesn’t he know that politicians aren’t allowed to hang posters at subway stations?
Because the rules don’t apply to some politicians!
Last June, Larry He made the newspaper because he resigned from his position as Andrew Cuomo’s Asian outreach director after he was questioned about his past. See this article:
