Some of the Unlucky Places in Quincy

Walking under a ladder or seeing a black cat crossing the street on a Friday the 13^th might bring you bad luck. However, have you thought about the unluckiest places to be in Quincy?

How about the stoplight at 10^th & Broadway? Put in for the hospital and for good reasons, but I swear I hit that red light every time and sit there FOREVER. Or, how about the traffic lights at 25^th & Broadway? Rumor has it if you get a red light there, it’s unlucky. However, 36^th and Broadway is by far the worst because, for several years in a row, it’s where the most accidents have happened in Quincy.

How about waiting in a particular store and you’re in a hurry and the cashier is taking his/her time ‘cause, well, you have nowhere to be, and in a hurry, while driving and the car in front of you is going extra slow for some reason. But the most unlucky place, I think, in Quincy is trying to make a left-hand turn onto Broadway. JUST DON’T DO IT! Why be that unlucky person when you can just go a block to a traffic light to make that turn SAFELY. There are times I see people trying to make left-hand turns and I just shake my head. Why? Why are you trying to turn there? Other drivers are sometimes nice and let people go, but there are others (me on occasion) that look at the driver and think “yeah good luck making that turn.”

These unlucky places are with us 365, 24/7. As we head into the last week of September and get closer to Halloween just take some extra precaution from ladders and black cats, just think there are unlucky places all around us in Quincy.
