The crash site on Route 235 appears to be located a few miles north of where that route intersects with New York State Route 7.  The road runs parallel to Wylie Brook and there is a plumbing and heating business along with widely spaced houses nearby. 

The nearest major roadway is Interstate 88, the Warren M. Anderson Memorial Expressway, which runs roughly parallel south of Route 7.
