NJ Councilwoman Caught on Video Slamming Into Cycl
Post# of 123732
New Jersey Democrat councilwoman Amy DeGise allegedly hit a cyclist with her vehicle and knocked him off his bicycle.
Stunning video footage shows that DeGise then drove away without stopping and fled from the scene.
DeGise was captured on camera slamming into Andrew Black, hitting him so hard that he flew over the vehicle’s hood and fell to the ground, according to hudpost.com.
“I look left, suddenly I just hear ‘Ba[m].’ I get hit,” said Black, a 29-year-old UberEats deliveryman. “I roll over and I’m in such pain.”
Instead of stopping and helping the man, the Democrat lawmaker drove away from the intersection, said Black, who was able to stand up shortly after the accident.
Black did not suffer any serious injuries but said he’s upset that a community leader failed to do the right thing after literally striking him with her car.
“Someone of prestige [who is] demanding to uphold and clean our streets or whatever they’re calling it… can’t even do it themselves,” Black said. “It really upset me.”
The surveillance camera footage appears to show Black pedaling through a red light at the time of the crash.
Although DeGise appeared to have the right of way, she was later given a summons for leaving the scene of an accident and failing to report it.
This issue here is not who is at fault, but rather the fact that she left the scene of an accident.
