Ridgewood NJ, it happens about every 6-9 months due to a poor parking lot design. No injury to driver, and vehicle was not damaged. Ridgewood Police Patrol Officer Christopher Mormino assisted the driver. All Points Towing gave an assist. Parking lot is located at Ridgewood Orthopedic Group, 85 South Maple Avenue, Ridgewood.
Looks like two uneven portions of surface grades are easy to misjudge
Why can’t property owner or VOR
Install some flexible low height cones or

Just another skill lost and another dependency ceded to the machines…
That’s the stone masons lot. I swear they call this fishing. Catching land tunas is another name of the sport. Once you get beached on the ledge, you’re at their mercy. Your only hope is that the docs save you before you’re net’ed otherwise off to the market for you to the highest bidder!
