Ridgewood NJ, A rollover crash on Lincoln Avenue near Godwin Avenue in Ridgewood on Saturday afternoon, 12/24, resulted in personnel from Ridgewood PD, FD, and EMS being dispatched to the crash location. The adult male driver of a Ford Explorer was trapped in his vehicle until he was freed by Ridgewood FD personnel, and then transported by a Ridgewood EMS ambulance to a hospital for treatment of a hand injury. The flipped vehicle was removed from the scene by a flatbed tow truck. Glen Rock PD units provided traffic control during the incident. The driver apparently lost control of his vehicle, which mounted a curb, and then rolled over after hitting a utility pole guy wire.

“Lost control of vehicle.” How many times have we seen that this year? Have you EVER known anyone who “lost control” while driving? Princess Grace did, but they found out that she’d had a heart attack. That, “black ice,” and alcohol used to be pretty much the only reasons that happened.
