Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in Staten Island?
Staten Island Streets Are Killing Us—Who Will Stop the Bloodshed?
Staten Island: Jan 1, 2022 - Aug 5, 2025
The Toll Mounts, Week After Week
On Staten Island, the numbers do not lie. Forty-four dead. Sixty-seven left with injuries that will not heal. These are not distant tragedies. They are neighbors, children, elders. In the last twelve months alone, nine people have died and 1,571 have been hurt on Staten Island’s streets (NYC Open Data).
Just last month, a 16-year-old on an e-scooter was killed on College Avenue. Police said, “Ellis suffered head trauma as a result of the crash” (Teen E-Scooter Rider Killed In Crash). Days later, a motorcyclist died after slamming into a car making a K-turn on Bay Street. The police report was blunt: “A motorcyclist was killed after colliding with a driver awkwardly turning their car on Staten Island” (Motorcyclist Dies In Staten Island K-Turn Crash).
In May, a 58-year-old man was crossing Targee Street when an e-scooter struck him. He died at the hospital. The story was the same: a man crossing the street, a fast-moving machine, and then the silence. “Gomez-Guallazaca suffered severe trauma throughout his body and was later pronounced dead at Richmond University Medical Center” (E-Scooter Kills Pedestrian On Staten Island).
The Machines That Kill
Cars and SUVs do most of the damage. Of the pedestrians hurt or killed, 11 died at the hands of cars or SUVs, with hundreds more injured. Trucks and buses killed 9. Motorcycles and mopeds, 0 deaths but several injuries. Bikes, none. The pattern is clear. The bigger the machine, the greater the harm (NYC Open Data).
Leaders Move, But Not Fast Enough
Local officials have made noise. They have renewed speed cameras and talked of safer streets. But the bodies keep coming. Laws that shift blame to the dead—jaywalking bans, helmet crackdowns—do not stop the killing. Every week that passes without real change is another week of blood on the asphalt.
Call to Action: Demand More Than Words
This is not fate. This is policy. Call your council member. Demand a 20 mph speed limit. Demand streets built for people, not machines. Do not wait for another name to be added to the list.
