    "New York Governor Kathy Hochul’s new campaign to reduce bridge strikes statewide through increased enforcement and education."

    New York should start by putting accurate clearance signs on all their bridges.

    I just moved out of NY, after several unsuccessful attempts to do so. You're not wrong, I was born in NY and lived there most of my life.
