Traffic Jam, Power Outage: SUV Slams Into Route 17 Utility Pole In Ramsey A driver was hospitalized with a head injury after his SUV slammed into a utility pole early Friday evening on Route 17 in Ramsey. Downed power lines fell in front of and behind a Federal Express tractor-trailer, further thickening area traffic near Spring Street and knocking out power to some area customers. Ramsey police, EMS and Rescue Squad squad members responded, along with an Orange & Rockland Electric crew. A flatbed tow truck removed the wrecked SUV. Boyd A. Loving contributed to this report.
