By Bill Parry

A 91-year-old woman died after her sedan drove onto a Bayside road divider and struck a light pole Friday afternoon, police said.

Oakland Gardens resident Ethel Zaremba had been driving southbound on Francis Lewis Boulevard near 48th Avenue when her 1992 Toyota Camry veered left, mounted a median and hit a lightpost, according to the NYPD.

Zaremba was taken to New York Hospital Queens, where she was pronounced dead, authorities said.

Police said there were no other vehicles involved in the fatal accident.
