A woman dies on Macombs Road. The driver runs.
AD 77: Jan 1, 2022 - Aug 24, 2025
Another driver. Same ending.
A 44-year-old woman was struck at W. 174th St. and Macombs Rd. around 11:45 p.m. The driver fled. Police are still looking for them, and have released no description. The woman died at St. Barnabas Hospital. Gothamist and the Post reported the details.
The city’s crash log lists the same corner near that time: a woman pedestrian, 44, killed on Macombs Rd and W 174 St, with driver distraction noted. NYC Open Data (CrashID 4833327).
“Police said they’re looking for the driver,” Gothamist reported.
A pattern. Not an accident.
Hit-and-run repeats here. In 2023, a driver ran over Jose Galan, dragged him 950 feet, and left. “Her alleged actions are egregious and show a lack of humanity,” Bronx DA Darcel Clark said. NY Daily News.
Speed repeats here. Police say Imani Williams drove 77 mph in a 25 zone, ran a red, and killed livery driver Robert Godwin. She was charged with manslaughter and more after a two‑year search. NY Daily News.
“They killed my son,” said Nancy Aguilar after another Bronx hit‑and‑run linked to a police chase. Streetsblog NYC.
Night is a kill zone.
In AD 77, the dead cluster after dark. Death counts spike from midnight to 2 a.m., and again around 4–6 a.m. and 6–9 p.m. NYC Open Data.
Pedestrians take the worst of it: 6 killed, 321 injured since 2022. SUVs and sedans are the main hitters. PeriodStats.
The worst corridors are known: Jerome Avenue and Cross Bronx Expressway, with multiple deaths. The Major Deegan Expressway toll is high too. NYC Open Data.
Causes that keep showing up: inattention, failure to yield, and speed. “Other” factors dominate the fatal tally in the dataset, a catch‑all that hides too much, but the bodies are real. NYC Open Data.
Three corners. One fix.
Harden turns and add LPIs on Jerome Ave and Webster Ave. The district’s list shows deaths and serious injuries on both. NYC Open Data.
Daylight crossings at Macombs Rd and W 174 St. The woman died there at night. Give sightlines back to people on foot. Gothamist + NYC Open Data.
Target repeat hotspots after dark. The district’s injuries stack up at late hours. Enforce failure‑to‑yield at turns and speeding on approaches. NYC Open Data.
Officials know what works — do they?
Albany extended and cleaned up NYC’s school speed‑zone rules this June. Your senator voted yes. Bill S 8344.
NYPD chases have turned deadly. Families say it plain. “They will be liable for my brother’s death,” said Justina Lorrious. Streetsblog NYC.
Two citywide moves would save lives here.
Lower the default speed limit citywide. Fewer dead at 20 mph than 30. The city has the tools. Use them. Take Action.
Stop the worst repeat offenders with speed limiters. Drivers who rack up tickets are far more likely to kill. Mandate intelligent speed assistance for them. Take Action.
Names become numbers. Corners become shrines. The driver keeps going. Stop them.
