I can't remember passing the Fordham Rd exit without there being a bad accident. Not in 30 years. Used to drive it once a week and, dasvidaniya, it happened the last time too. There was the 40-something who was driving at 15 MPH in the right lane that nearly got rear ended by the Greyhound who then nearly go rear ended by the cement truck. There was the teenager who was speeding up then slowing down to 35 MPH and cutting people off. There was the GWB interchange which means that most drivers have no idea what to do when they get to it - there was also a three car accident on that ramp. Last there was the pickup driver who hadn't tied down his load. He got off before I could tell him, but it was a pretty exciting stretch of road to drive.

I was nearly killed on the Deegan a dozen times by people who didn't know how to drive. I stopped using the Deegan, I would be dead had I continued using it. I used to monitor the scanner and 95% of the calls were for an accident on the Deegan. many of them fatal.

The Fordham Road exit was the worst. There was never a moment when there wasn't a serious accident there. I remember a woman leaving school to head home. I warned her to avoid the Deegan and to avoid the Fordham road area of the Deegan. Rather than heed my advice she went with the Deegan and ended up in the hospital. Luckinly she survived and recovered. The Deegan is a death trap.
