Queens has repeat speeders. The tickets pile up. The city and state can act. Lower speeds save lives. Require speed limiters for the worst repeat offenders. The City Council and Albany have the levers. Take Action
Your Council Member is Vickie Paladino. Your Assembly Member is Stacey Pheffer Amato. Your State Senator is James Sanders. The public record provided here does not show whether they have sponsored a speed‑limiter bill. Will they back it now? Take Action
What Happens Next
- Lower the default city speed limit under Sammy’s Law. Do it citywide. Take Action

One corner. One turn. A man in a crosswalk. This is how the count grows. It does not have to.
