AD 80’s toll: seven deaths, 1,900 injuries — and the hours when the streets bite
AD 80: Jan 1, 2022 - Aug 26, 2025
Southern Boulevard. Mosholu Parkway. The Bronx River Parkway. The numbers in AD 80 do not blink.
Since 2022, this district logged 7 deaths and 1,917 injuries across 3,180 crashes. Pedestrians were hit 306 times; cyclists in 104 crashes; e‑bikes and mopeds in 76; most harm fell on people inside cars. These figures come straight from NYC Open Data.
Peak pain comes late and lingers: injuries stack up around the evening rush and into night — 4 p.m. through 10 p.m. shows repeated spikes, with deaths at 4 p.m., 5 p.m., 8 a.m., 10 p.m., and midnight, per the district’s hourly distribution.
On causes, the city’s own roll‑ups point most cases to “other,” but crash reports still show “unsafe speed,” “failure to yield,” and “disregarded control” threaded through the hurt. See the contributing factors.
Left turns kill. So do speed and mass.
On the Bronx River Parkway, a 30‑year‑old driver was ejected and died at 3:17 a.m.; police coded “unsafe speed.” Her passenger was badly hurt.
At Mosholu Parkway and Bainbridge, a moped rider, 35, was killed just after midnight. The report shows he was ejected.
At Rhinelander and Radcliff, a 91‑year‑old man was struck in the intersection and died. A sedan going straight. Center front damage.
Citywide, a rider named Nathaniel Martinez, 31, died when a Chevrolet Equinox turned left across him near the Bruckner ramps. “The Equinox driver stayed at the scene,” the paper wrote. That is from the Daily News.
“Police are searching for a driver who allegedly fled after striking and killing a pedestrian in the Bronx,” reported CBS New York. A line like a cold door.
Where the street breaks
The district’s worst corridors include Southern Boulevard — two deaths — and Mosholu Parkway and the Bronx River Parkway — one death each. E. Gun Hill Road shows 113 injuries. Bronxdale Ave logs seven serious injuries.
Pedestrians were most often hit by sedans and SUVs here, per the district’s roll‑up. Trucks and buses add fewer cases but heavier outcomes. See the vehicle rollup.
Nights and early mornings hurt: midnight to 5 a.m. piles 183 injuries and three deaths. Rush hours add more.
What we heard in public
“An arrest was made after Keino Campbell, 27, was shot and killed … in the Bronx,” a road‑rage case, said CBS New York.
After a 2019 Bronx traffic stop turned fatal, NYPD’s top cop cleared the shooter. “It was reasonable,” Commissioner Jessica Tisch wrote, overruling a departmental judge, reported Gothamist. The family answered through advocates: Tisch’s decision “sends a clear and terrifying message.”
Fix the places where bodies fall
Daylight every corner on Southern, Mosholu, and East Gun Hill. Harden the turns. Give leading pedestrian intervals. Target left‑turn hotspots with protected phases.
Night is bloody here. Do targeted enforcement and speed control where the clock says it hurts: midnight, 3 a.m., 4–7 p.m., 10 p.m. The hour map is in city data.
Trucks cut deep when they hit. Add turn‑calming and tighter geometry on truck routes.
Turn the big levers
Albany renewed the city’s school‑zone camera program through 2030. Your Assembly Member voted yes on the Senate‑carried fix. See bill S 8344.
Now pull the next two:
Lower speeds everywhere. NYC has the power to set safer limits under Sammy’s Law. Our own guide explains why and how to act. Read and share our take‑action page.
Stop repeat speeders. The Stop Super Speeders Act would force the worst offenders to use speed limiters after piling up tickets. Details and call scripts are in our action guide.
One more name should not depend on luck or the hour of night. Act now.
