Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in AD 82?
Bartow Bleeds: When Will Benedetto Choose Safety Over Silence?
AD 82: Jan 1, 2022 - Jul 18, 2025
Blood on Bartow Avenue
A 71-year-old woman lay on the ground. Paramedics checked her body. She did not get up. Seven others were hurt. The crash came fast—three cars, a pole, metal and glass. “I saw one lady was out on the ground. They was giving her medical attention, checking her body. She was laid out,” said Samuel Cherry. The street was quiet again, but the loss stayed.
Just weeks before, a scooter crash on the Hutchinson River Parkway left an 18-year-old woman fighting for her life. The moped driver fled. “Police said the moped driver sped away… leaving the young woman to die on the road,” reported the Daily News. Six others went to the hospital. The road does not forgive.
In the last 12 months, five people died and 654 were injured in crashes here. Seven were left with serious injuries.
The Numbers Do Not Lie
The dead are not numbers, but the numbers are grim. Since 2022, 11 people have died and 1,928 have been injured on these streets. Cars and SUVs did most of the harm. Trucks, motorcycles, mopeds, and even bikes left their mark. Pedestrians, cyclists, children—none are spared.
Benedetto: Votes, Silence, and the Road Ahead
Assembly Member Michael Benedetto voted to extend school speed zones and expand speed cameras—steps that protect children and walkers. He also co-sponsored a bill for safer street designs (File A 1077). But he backed bills to weaken bus rules (File S 8344) and add red tape for e-scooter riders (File A 8079), shifting the burden to those already at risk. He stood up for a campaign donor seeking exemption from anti-idling laws (sought exemption), even as children and the elderly breathe the air.
The work is not done. Every day without a citywide 20 mph speed limit, another life is at risk.
Call to Action
Call Benedetto. Call your council member. Demand a 20 mph speed limit, more speed cameras, and street designs that protect the most vulnerable. The blood on the street is not an accident. It is a choice. Make them choose safety.

Benedetto Supports Misguided Idling Law Exemption for Donor▸Assembly Member Benedetto backed a campaign donor’s bid to dodge city idling fines. DJ Transportation owes $65,000 for idling. Advocates say fumes harm neighborhoods. The company refuses to electrify. Disabled riders are used as a shield. Health loses. Industry wins.
On May 30, 2024, Bronx Assembly Member Michael Benedetto testified in support of exempting DJ Transportation from New York City’s anti-idling law. The matter, heard by city officials, centered on whether companies serving students with disabilities should avoid fines for running engines. Benedetto argued, "I believe DJ Ambulette should be ... given a variance to let them have their buses idle to properly maintain their temperature on their buses." DJ Transportation, a campaign donor, owes over $65,000 in unpaid fines and has not committed to electrifying its fleet. Benedetto denied any influence from donations. The Department of Environmental Protection and advocates rejected claims that idling is needed for temperature control, citing community health risks. Critics condemned the use of disabled clients as justification for continued pollution. No safety analyst assessed the impact on vulnerable road users.

Assembly Member Benedetto backed a campaign donor’s bid to dodge city idling fines. DJ Transportation owes $65,000 for idling. Advocates say fumes harm neighborhoods. The company refuses to electrify. Disabled riders are used as a shield. Health loses. Industry wins.
On May 30, 2024, Bronx Assembly Member Michael Benedetto testified in support of exempting DJ Transportation from New York City’s anti-idling law. The matter, heard by city officials, centered on whether companies serving students with disabilities should avoid fines for running engines. Benedetto argued, "I believe DJ Ambulette should be ... given a variance to let them have their buses idle to properly maintain their temperature on their buses." DJ Transportation, a campaign donor, owes over $65,000 in unpaid fines and has not committed to electrifying its fleet. Benedetto denied any influence from donations. The Department of Environmental Protection and advocates rejected claims that idling is needed for temperature control, citing community health risks. Critics condemned the use of disabled clients as justification for continued pollution. No safety analyst assessed the impact on vulnerable road users.
