Hours after four young people were killed in a deadly Queens crash, a second car carrying a group of friends swerved off a nearby road and also plunged into the water — but in this case, all escaped with their lives. The accident happened Saturday at around 4 a.m. on 20th Avenue and Shore Boulevard — just a mile from the fatal accident that killed the foursome of childhood friends. As the five pals reached the edge of 20th Avenue, the driver lost control of the 2010 Toyota — which hit a metal fence and overturned into the East River, sources said.
