Losing your way in New York City is no fun, especially when you get so confused that you crash into the one place that can help you – a map store.
That’s what happened to a Bronx man yesterday, when he became befuddled as he left a West 43rd Street parking garage at about 8 a.m. and made a right turn into the front of a Hagstrom Map shop next door, smashing the plate glass to smithereens.
Rodney Bailey’s green Ford Expedition clipped two women as it careened into the Hagstrom’s window. Both were hospitalized with injuries that police said were not critical.
Cops ruled that the crash was an accident, and Bailey was not charged. After about an hour, he was able to drive the SUV away. The shop opened again for business amid the debris.
