Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in Queens?
Queens Streets Bleed While Politicians Stall
Queens: Jan 1, 2022 - Aug 4, 2025
The Toll in Queens
The bodies keep coming. In the last twelve months, 66 people died on Queens streets. 172 were left with serious injuries—the kind that never heal right. The numbers are not just numbers. They are mothers, sons, neighbors.
Just days ago, a 55-year-old e-bike rider, Zhao Feng Zhen, was struck and killed by a Nissan Rogue on Hollis Court Boulevard. The driver stayed. Police are still investigating. The story is short. The loss is not. “On Thursday around 2:15 p.m., e-bike rider Zhao Feng Zhen, 55, died after the 62-year-old driver of a 2015 Nissan Rogue struck her while heading south on Hollis Court Blvd. approaching 50th Ave. in Auburndale, police said.”
A week before, a 39-year-old moped rider died at 23rd Avenue and 37th Street. The crash report lists “traffic control disregarded” and “driver inattention.” The words are cold. The street is colder.
Leadership: Promises and Delays
The city talks about Vision Zero. The state talks about Sammy’s Law. But the speed on most streets is still 25 mph. The city could lower it to 20 mph today. They have not.
Speed cameras catch the worst, but the worst keep driving. One bill in Albany would force repeat speeders to install devices that keep them from going over the limit. It sits in committee. The carnage continues.
Who Pays the Price?
SUVs and cars do the most harm. In Queens, they killed 56 people and injured thousands more. Trucks and buses killed 14. Motorcycles and mopeds killed 5. Bikes killed 1. The dead are mostly the ones walking, riding, or just standing in the wrong place at the wrong time.
A mother, Keisha Francis, stood in court and said, “I wish they would never have given him that car. I wish they would never think about giving him that car—because if they didn’t give him that car, my daughter would still be here right now.”
Act Now: Demand Action
Call your council member. Call the mayor. Demand a 20 mph speed limit. Demand real penalties for repeat speeders. Every day of delay is another day someone does not come home. The blood is on the street. It does not wash away.
