There was a total of 10 cars off the roadway in a quarter mile stretch on the Peekskill/Mohegan border line.

[Guest DFFD227]

Is this by or on the overpass/Exit to RT 6?

[BFD1054 1,552]

DFFD227, it was dispatched as between Carhart Ave.(Peekskill) and Route 6(Mohegan). As CG206 stated, it is a stretch of the Bear Mountain Parkway that is approximately 1/4 mile long and is on the Peekskill/Mohegan border. From what i heard on the radio, it sounded like it was south of the Route 6 exit.

I drove past there this morning, you could clearly see all the tire marks going off the almost the whole length between the two points. If you got on the BMP @ Route 6 it would be the stretch of road heading North/West, toward Peekskill (Route 9).
