A disturbing incident in Middletown, New Jersey, is raising concerns about pedestrian safety after a disabled man was struck by a commuter bus while crossing Route 211. Surveillance video reviewed by News 12 shows the man just minutes before and during the crash, providing chilling details of the tragic event.

The footage, captured by the Exxon gas station's security cameras, shows the victim struggling to walk as he shuffled across the busy road. According to the convenience store clerk, the man, who was a regular customer, had just purchased a lottery ticket inside the store moments before the accident.

Middletown police, who have yet to release the victim’s name, confirmed that the man was hit by a westbound commuter bus while attempting to cross Route 211. The bus remained at the scene for several hours after the incident, and News 12 was on-site when it was towed away just before noon. The crash occurred at approximately 6:15 a.m., still in the early morning hours when it was dark outside.

Though the police have not yet disclosed all the details of what happened, the surveillance video paints a clear picture. The man appears to be in the middle of the road when struck by the bus. The lack of adequate lighting and the time of day could have contributed to the difficulty in seeing him in the roadway.

Local residents have expressed their concerns about the safety of the area. “Honestly, it’s a mess,” said one local man, who wished to remain anonymous. Ana Ayala, who moved to Middletown last August, echoed the sentiment, saying, “Too much. There are always accidents here on the street.”

Although there are several crosswalks in the vicinity, the incident took place on a section of Route 211 where there is no designated crossing area. “For that to be happening like that, especially to an old man, it’s very devastating,” said Maurico Zeferino, a Middletown resident.

This tragic accident has sparked renewed concerns about pedestrian safety in the area, particularly for those with mobility challenges. As the investigation continues, many are left wondering what can be done to prevent similar accidents in the future, especially in areas where pedestrians are at higher risk.

  Another Life Lost to NJ Transit: When Will It End? Early Sunday morning, tragedy struck in Newark when an NJ Transit bus hit two pedestrians, leaving one dead and another seriously injured. According to the Essex County Prosecutor’s Office, the incident occurred at 12:18 a.m. on the 400 block of Springfield Avenue. Koran Tajhai Dupree Baker, a 25-year-old Newark resident, succumbed to his injuries at a local hospital. The second victim remains hospitalized, fighting to recover. Here we are in 2025, and NJ Transit buses continue to take lives under Governor Phil Murphy’s administration. How many more people must be injured or killed before real accountability is enforced? It’s time for action. A class action lawsuit needs to be filed against NJ Transit on behalf of all living victims and the families of those who have lost their lives due to reckless bus drivers. These drivers must be held accountable—this is not just negligence; these are murders on wheels . NJ Transit has ...

 "The federal statutes that force my opponent to comply with discovery are Fed. R. Civ. P. 26, 34, and 37. Rule 34 requires production within 30 days of a request. Rule 37 allows me to file a Motion to Compel if they fail to produce, and authorizes the Court to impose sanctions, award fees, strike their pleadings, or enter default judgment for willful non-compliance. Rule 37(e) also addresses spoliation of electronically stored information including body-worn camera footage and CAD records. In the District of New Jersey, Local Civil Rule 37.1 required me to complete a meet and confer before filing — which I completed on April 30, 2026." If you are trying to compel discovery and don't know what local rules and statutes govern compliance, you are wasting your time, and showing that you might not know what you are doing and aren't credible. This is akin to the tail wagging the dog or putting the cart before the horse. Sending a notice to opposing counsel achieves nothing...
