How were these numbers calculated?

We used NYC Open Data’s Motor Vehicle Collisions datasets (Crashes h9gi-nx95, Persons f55k-p6yu, Vehicles bm4k-52h4). We filtered records occurring from 2022‑01‑01 to 2025‑09‑11 within Assembly District 46 and summarized counts by injury severity, mode, location, hour, and vehicle type. Data were accessed Sept 10–11, 2025. You can start from the crashes dataset [here](https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Public-Safety/Motor-Vehicle-Collisions-Crashes/h9gi-nx95) and apply the same date and geography filters.

We're a tool for helping hold local politicians and other actors accountable for their failure to protect you when you're walking or cycling in NYC. We update our site constantly to provide you with up to date information on what's happening in your neighborhood.

👎 Negative
2025-06-23 · Leadership · Streetsblog NYC · ↓ hurts grade
Eleven city lawmakers voted no on speed cameras. Their votes keep streets exposed. Pedestrians and cyclists lose a shield. Reckless drivers win. The city’s most basic defense—rejected. The toll will be measured in blood, not words.
Brook-Krasny votes no, opposing safer school speed zones for children.
👎 Negative
2025-06-17 · Vote · Open States · ↓ hurts grade
Senate passes S 8344. School speed zone rules in New York City get extended. Lawmakers make technical fixes. The bill keeps pressure on drivers near schools. Streets stay a little safer for kids.

Recent win: New NYC Ferry Route Connects Brooklyn And Staten Island

Brannan Praises Ferry Route as Safety Boosting Commute Option
👍 Positive
2025-12-09 · Leadership · BKReader · ↑ helps grade
New ferry cuts a clean line over the harbor. No tailpipes. No tolls. Each rider ducks a car trip and the cross-borough death traps that come with it.
Brannan co-sponsors autonomous taxi licensing bill; safety impact uncertain.
👍 Positive
2025-11-12 · Sponsor · NYC Council – Legistar · ↑ helps grade
Council sends robotaxis to committee. Human drivers stay. No licenses until rules. Data, safety, access, insurance. Guardrails before rollout. Pedestrians and cyclists can’t be test dummies.
A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to the department of social services issuing replacement transit benefit cards
👍 Positive
2025-10-09 · Sponsor · NYC Council – Legistar · ↑ helps grade
Easier and low-cost replacement of reduced-fare transit cards maintains access to transit, supporting mode shift from driving and reducing traffic exposure risks for pedestrians and cyclists. The modest fee only after the first replacement limits barriers, so net effects on vulnerable road users are slightly positive via fewer cars and safety-in-numbers.
A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to the department of social services issuing replacement transit benefit cards
👍 Positive
2025-10-09 · Sponsor · NYC Council – Legistar · ↑ helps grade
Ensuring quick, low-cost replacement of reduced-fare transit cards supports continuous transit use for low-income riders, modestly encouraging mode shift away from driving. Increased transit ridership can reduce vehicle trips and improve safety-in-numbers for pedestrians and cyclists, though the impact is likely small.
