Bronx streets, broken promises
Bronx: Jan 1, 2022 - Nov 2, 2025
On Oct 26 in the Bronx, police say a man drove into an NYPD car and struck a cyclist. That’s on tape and in the log, a clean line in a dirty record (CBS New York).
Since 2022, 183 people have been killed in traffic crashes in the Bronx. Thousands more were hurt (NYC Open Data).
Corners that take people
Feb 3, 2025, White Plains Rd at Wood Ave: a driver making a left hit a 75‑year‑old man crossing with the signal. Police recorded failure to yield by the driver. He died (NYC Open Data).
Mar 29, 2025, University Ave at W Kingsbridge Rd: a van driver turned right and hit a 65‑year‑old man in the crosswalk. Police recorded failure to yield by the driver. He died (NYC Open Data).
Apr 2, 2025, E 149 St at Morris Ave: three SUVs, stopped and moving. A 52‑year‑old man was struck and killed in the roadway (NYC Open Data).
Apr 17, 2025, Oak Point Ave at Coster St: a box‑truck driver “starting from parking” hit a 61‑year‑old man outside the crosswalk. He died (NYC Open Data).
May 10, 2025, Webster Ave at E 168 St: police recorded unsafe speed by the driver of a Mercedes. A 43‑year‑old man at the intersection was killed (NYC Open Data).
May 24, 2025, White Plains Rd at E 216 St: police recorded driver inattention. A 76‑year‑old woman outside the crosswalk was killed (NYC Open Data).
Sept 7, 2025, near Mosholu Parkway: a 30‑year‑old man was struck and killed; the driver fled, police said (ABC7; CBS New York).
A brutal count, year over year
This year, 26 people have been killed in Bronx crashes; by this point last year it was 42. Injuries are up, serious injuries are down. Fewer funerals still leave too many beds empty (NYC Open Data).
Citywide, the cameras keep clocking the same plates. In the past year, one New York plate racked up 253 school‑zone speeding tickets. Others trailed close behind. The state’s own thresholds flag these as habitual speeders (CrashCount analysis of NYC speed‑camera data).
The tools are on the table
Lower the default speed. Enforce it on the worst repeat offenders. The Stop Super Speeders Act — S4045C/A2299C — would require intelligent speed assistance after 11 DMV points in 18 months or 16 camera tickets in a year. It’s written. It’s public. It needs votes (CrashCount Take Action).
In the Bronx, the names on your ballot are clear: Council Member Eric Dinowitz, Assembly Member George Alvarez, and State Senator Jose Serrano. Will they back it? The record here is the bodies and the corners where they fell.
The rider hit on Oct 26 is not a headline. He is a warning. Tell City Hall and Albany to use the tools they have. Start here.
