With pedestrians and puppies getting electrocuted all over the city, a website has finally launched mapping hot zones.
InfraShock hosts tips (bikers: don't chain your bike up to anything electrical) and an up to date map of dangerous areas (though currently the map only has six spots listed). They also have news on the latest efforts by the city and Con Ed to stop these stray voltage accidents.
Earlier this year the father of Jodie Lane, who was killed by stray voltage in 2004, spoke at a public hearing about how the problem persists today. Of course, earlier this year (prior to one of their own being fatally shocked) Con Ed stated that they're doing a great job.
If you hear of stray voltage in your neighborhood, put it on the map.
