Investigate the Chinatown van crash that killed two children

Published by May Cheung on Feb 03, 2009

We, the undersigned, request the Manhattan District Attorney to investigate this infraction and to issue all tickets or summons concerning all parking violations incurred by the driver: double parking, leaving an idling van, etc.

The lives of two innocent children were taken due to a person’s negligence. Nothing was done. No ticket was issued. No suspension of his license. No one plans to kill another person. But someone is still responsible and therefore must be held accountable.

Something must be done so as to prevent another accident of this nature from occurring. Chinatown needs to see action taken for the safety of all children and pedestrians. This is a family community.

Update: I would like to Thank everyone for their support. The DA has concluded that they will not press charges due to the limitation of the current laws.

Next steps for the family is to see if we can get NY to implement laws to prevent this type of incident or at least make it so that there will be consequences attach to incidents due to negligence.
