Wrong-Way Driver Causes 4-Vehicle Accident on Route 304

Kristina Gaddish, 31, of West Milford, NJ was charged with driving while intoxicated and reckless driving following the accident.

A wrong-way driver on Route 304 in Nanuet caused a four-vehicle accident late Saturday night, according to Clarkstown Police. 

Kristina Gaddish, 31, of West Milford, NJ was charged with driving while intoxicated and reckless driving after apparently traveling northbound in a southbound lane on Route 304. The incident occurred at approximately 11:51 p.m. Saturday and involved four vehicles, said police. 

Drivers of the four vehicles, including Gaddish, were all taken to Nyack Hospital but the status of their injuries is not known at this time. More information is expected to be available Monday. 

Nanuet FD responded and after securing all vehicles, and containing any spilled fluids, Nanuet FD returned to normal service roughly an hour later. Pearl River FD was briefly called in for possible extrication, but was not needed because it was found that no patient extrication was required.

Nanuet FD reports that some residents claimed that the force of the collisions sent debris off the overpass and onto Blauvelt Road below.

Mutual aid was requested from Pearl River FD, Clarkstown PD, Nanuet EMS, Pearl River EMS and Rockland Paramedics

This is just ridiculous. There are two aspects to our water. Supply and demand. United WaterRead More control our supply and have been instructed by the NY Public Service Commission to increase our supply. Our politicians control our demand. They could enact legislation to restrict demand tomorrow: Introduce water saving measures, restrict growth and introduce incentives and policies to conserve, but do they? No, of course not, they would rather showboat and slam UW, who are doing what the State has mandated. If our local politicians are serious on this issue, propose real legislation and water conservation measure, not just baseless rebuke of UW.
