Blood on Broadway: This Is Not an Accident—It’s Policy
AD 72: Jan 1, 2022 - Jun 4, 2025
The Slow Grind of Loss
A man lies bleeding on Broadway. A teenager is thrown from a moped on West 185th. An elderly cyclist falls silent on Saint Nicholas Avenue. In the last twelve months, Assembly District 72 saw 1 death, 14 serious injuries, and 369 people hurt in 713 crashes. The numbers do not flinch. They do not pause for grief. NYC Open Data
Children are not spared. Twenty-five under 18 were injured, one seriously. The old are not spared. Twelve people over 75 were hurt, one left with wounds that do not heal. The street does not care who you are.
What Hits, Hurts, and Kills
SUVs and cars do the most damage. In three years, they killed two pedestrians and left 10 with serious wounds. Motorcycles and mopeds cut down more. Bikes, too, have left their mark—one death, one serious injury. The machines are many. The bodies are soft.
Leadership: Steps Forward, Miles to Go
Assembly Member Manny De Los Santos has signed his name to bills for safer streets. He co-sponsored laws to require complete street design, vehicle safety tech, speed limiters, and automated bike lane enforcement. He voted yes to school speed cameras. The record shows movement. But the blood on the street says it is not enough.
Every delay is another crash. Every loophole is another family broken.
What Comes Next
This is not fate. It is policy. The city now has the power to lower speed limits. Cameras can catch the reckless, if Albany keeps them alive. But laws on paper do not slow a car. Only action does.
Call De Los Santos. Call the Mayor. Demand a 20 mph speed limit. Demand cameras that never sleep. Demand streets where children can walk home.
Do not wait for the next siren. Take action now.
