Only a minor injury was reported following a two-vehicle accident Tuesday at 6:30 p.m. at the intersection of Norton Road and Route 262.
Kenneth D. Kowalik, 49, of Elba, was reportedly driving a 2006 Honda pick-up north on Norton when he failed to yield for a stop sign, striking a 2004 Pontiac driven by Gina M. Johnson, 30, of Bergen.
Johnson complained of abdominal pain, but was not hurt seriously enough to be transported to the hospital.
This isn't first time people
This isn't first time people have run that stop sign....I have seen somebody go right through it(about 40-50mph)-another 5 seconds they would have been tasting an 18 wheeler loaded(about 76k lbs, that day)-about a month later the other driver I work with almost nailed someone going southbound on Norton-the pickup slammed its brakes and stopped just before entering intersection...I don't know how someone can't see a big yellow truck coming down the road.....just a matter of time before someone gets killed there.
