  1. This happens A LOT in that area, but some people just won’t learn! It’s an extremely busy part of 301 with a ton of traffic lights and yet so many insist on crossing in between the traffic lights. It almost always happens at night and it’s often employees leaving work. SMDH!

    1. He was arguing with a female on the phone screaming and yelling and then just walked out in front of a car he did it willing I work at Autozone basically right where it happened

    2. This did not happen on 301. It happened on Rt. 5 and not in direct vicinity to any traffic lights.

  2. I heard it was this old guy Paul that used to frequent the bar I worked at. Goldmine saloon. And he always walked around drunk and wouldnโ€™t be on the phone arguing with a woman. So unless two people died the same Thursday On the same road Iโ€™m confused
