The drill begins Tuesday night and continues through Thursday. It will take place in Queens.

Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly says it will "address the possibility of a nuclear or radioactive device coming into the city." Special units will be assessed on how well they detect, intercept and defuse a dirty bomb or other device.

Police are warning that the exercise could cause traffic delays.
