Speeding trucks trying to catch the green light on 3rd avenue turning unto 60th Street where there is a school right there. More than once I have witnessed near hits between trucks. buses, cars, pedestrians, bikes, scooters, all trying to go different ways at the same time. All that is there to police is a single crossing guard and a red light camera.

At the corner of 60th Street and 3rd avenue which is a truck route also shares space with a school zone. On multiple occasions I have witnessed near hits, and almost became a victim myself once! It is a very busy, becoming very dangerous intersection with cars and trucks and pedestrians all trying to go different ways at the same time. Plus cars and trucks trying to avoid the delayed green light on 3rd Avenue crossing over to 60th Street. The poor crossing guard tries her very best and does a great job, but she is only one person putting her whole body in front of massive trucks. There's no contest.

Trucks block bike lane almost every day and the workers don’t pay attention. Have been almost whacked by doors and forklifts on multiple occasions. Deliveries must cross bike lane to get to destination, very dangerous.

There is not enough room to stand if you get stuck on a median. They put these flimsy yellow plastic poles which can easily be broken. When vehicles make the left on the light, someone can easily be hit.

Trucks make right turns and often go over the sidewalk where students and their families wait to cross.

This is an odd configuration where there is a painted "bus lane" for one very short half block. Trucks speed through this intersection constantly.

Turner Pl - Coney Island Ave - Stratford Rd
This intersection is impossible to use because of speeding trucks and lack of a crosswalk or light. Crossing here at any time of day is taking your life into your hands.

Church Ave - East 8 St - Coney Island Ave
Cyclists, including myself, often take east 8th street to get to Prospect Park. This means that they have to cross a strange intersection that is partially covered by a light at East 8th street and Church Ave. Trucks often are not able to stop quickly and so are often pulled partially into the intersection, making it hard to safely cross the street to the other East 8th street.
