Four Corners, Four Bodies. One City That Won’t Slow Down.
New York City: Jan 1, 2022 - Oct 2, 2025
Just after 2 AM on Sep 27, 2025, at Meserole Street and Leonard Street, a 32‑year‑old woman on a bike was hit and killed by a driver in a sedan, according to city crash records (NYC Open Data).
This Week
- Sep 24, Fifth Avenue at East 40th Street: a girl was killed at the intersection when an SUV and a box truck were involved; police recorded the SUV driver as backing (NYC Open Data).
- Sep 22, 115th Avenue at 227th Street: a 36‑year‑old man on an e‑bike was killed by a driver in a sedan going straight (NYC Open Data).
- Sep 20, Liberty Avenue at I‑678: a 51‑year‑old woman walking was killed; both drivers were turning left (NYC Open Data).
The count does not stop
Since Jan 1, 2022, New York City has recorded 1,140 deaths and 200,754 injuries in traffic crashes, with 2,644 of those injuries classified as serious (NYC Open Data). These are people who were walking, biking, riding, and driving on our streets.
This year, the city has logged 216 deaths and 39,053 injuries so far, compared with 223 deaths and 41,155 injuries at this point last year (NYC Open Data). Fewer than last year. Still too many names that became numbers.
Patterns in plain sight
At Fifth and 40th in Midtown, the record notes the SUV driver was unlicensed and backing when the child was struck; the truck driver was stopped in traffic (NYC Open Data). In Cambria Heights, the e‑bike rider and the sedan driver were both going straight when they collided (NYC Open Data). On Liberty at I‑678, both drivers were turning left when the woman was killed in the crosswalk area noted as an intersection (NYC Open Data).
The map dots are spread across boroughs. The endings read the same.
Slow the cars. Stop the repeat speeders.
Lower speeds save lives. The city now has the authority to drop local limits. The state has a bill to rein in the worst repeat speeders with speed‑limiting tech. Both steps are on the table. Both answer what these corners keep asking. See how to press those changes here.
One woman on a bike at Meserole and Leonard. Four corners in one week. The fix is known. The clock keeps running.

Adams Backs Misguided 15 MPH E‑Bike Speed Limit▸Sep 24 - Mayor Adams sets a citywide 15 mph e-bike speed cap effective Oct. 24. The limit slows micromobility, shifts burdens to riders, invites uneven enforcement of delivery workers, widens speed gaps with cars, and risks worsening safety for pedestrians and cyclists.
"Mayor Eric Adams will announce later Wednesday that enforcement of the new 15 mph speed limit..." -- Eric Adams
No bill number. Status: announced Sep. 24, 2025; enforcement begins Oct. 24, 2025. Committee: N/A. The matter appeared as "NYC e-bike speed limit will take effect next month; how fast will riders be able to go?" Mayor Eric Adams announced and backs the citywide 15 mph cap. No council sponsors or votes are listed. Safety analysts warn: "While lower micromobility speeds may modestly reduce conflict severity in crowded spaces, a citywide 15 mph cap shifts burdens onto vulnerable users, invites inequitable enforcement of delivery workers, widens speed differentials with cars, and risks discouraging mode shift from driving—likely worsening system-wide safety for pedestrians and cyclists."

Adams Backs Misguided 15 MPH E‑Bike Speed Limit▸Sep 24 - Mayor Adams sets a citywide 15 mph e-bike speed cap effective Oct. 24. The limit slows micromobility, shifts burdens to riders, invites uneven enforcement of delivery workers, widens speed gaps with cars, and risks worsening safety for pedestrians and cyclists.
"Mayor Eric Adams will announce later Wednesday that enforcement of the new 15 mph speed limit..." -- Eric Adams
No bill number. Status: announced Sep. 24, 2025; enforcement begins Oct. 24, 2025. Committee: N/A. The matter appeared as "NYC e-bike speed limit will take effect next month; how fast will riders be able to go?" Mayor Eric Adams announced and backs the citywide 15 mph cap. No council sponsors or votes are listed. Safety analysts warn: "While lower micromobility speeds may modestly reduce conflict severity in crowded spaces, a citywide 15 mph cap shifts burdens onto vulnerable users, invites inequitable enforcement of delivery workers, widens speed differentials with cars, and risks discouraging mode shift from driving—likely worsening system-wide safety for pedestrians and cyclists."

Adams Backs Misguided 15 MPH E‑Bike Speed Limit▸Sep 24 - Mayor Adams sets a citywide 15 mph e-bike speed cap effective Oct. 24. The limit slows micromobility, shifts burdens to riders, invites uneven enforcement of delivery workers, widens speed gaps with cars, and risks worsening safety for pedestrians and cyclists.

Adams Backs Misguided 15 MPH E‑Bike Speed Limit▸Sep 24 - Mayor Adams sets a citywide 15 mph e-bike speed cap effective Oct. 24. The limit slows micromobility, shifts burdens to riders, invites uneven enforcement of delivery workers, widens speed gaps with cars, and risks worsening safety for pedestrians and cyclists.
"Mayor Eric Adams will announce later Wednesday that enforcement of the new 15 mph speed limit..." -- Eric Adams
No bill number. Status: announced Sep. 24, 2025; enforcement begins Oct. 24, 2025. Committee: N/A. The matter appeared as "NYC e-bike speed limit will take effect next month; how fast will riders be able to go?" Mayor Eric Adams announced and backs the citywide 15 mph cap. No council sponsors or votes are listed. Safety analysts warn: "While lower micromobility speeds may modestly reduce conflict severity in crowded spaces, a citywide 15 mph cap shifts burdens onto vulnerable users, invites inequitable enforcement of delivery workers, widens speed differentials with cars, and risks discouraging mode shift from driving—likely worsening system-wide safety for pedestrians and cyclists."

Adams Backs Ryder Law Horse Carriage Ban▸Sep 23 - Mayor Eric Adams urged the City Council to pass Ryder's Law, a horse‑carriage ban. TWU president John Samuelsen said he was blindsided. Backing the ban would likely remove slow, bulky carriages and modestly reduce conflicts and lane blockages for people walking and biking.

The City & State headline quoted the reaction: "TWU president slams Eric Adams as “backstabber” over support for horse carriage ban." TWU president John Samuelsen said the mayor blindsided him.

Backing a horse-carriage ban would likely remove slow, bulky vehicles from crowded streets and park loops, reducing conflict points and lane blockages for people walking and biking; expected gains are modest but positive for vulnerable users.

Adams Backs Misguided 15 MPH E‑Bike Speed Limit▸Sep 24 - Mayor Adams sets a citywide 15 mph e-bike speed cap effective Oct. 24. The limit slows micromobility, shifts burdens to riders, invites uneven enforcement of delivery workers, widens speed gaps with cars, and risks worsening safety for pedestrians and cyclists.
"Mayor Eric Adams will announce later Wednesday that enforcement of the new 15 mph speed limit..." -- Eric Adams
No bill number. Status: announced Sep. 24, 2025; enforcement begins Oct. 24, 2025. Committee: N/A. The matter appeared as "NYC e-bike speed limit will take effect next month; how fast will riders be able to go?" Mayor Eric Adams announced and backs the citywide 15 mph cap. No council sponsors or votes are listed. Safety analysts warn: "While lower micromobility speeds may modestly reduce conflict severity in crowded spaces, a citywide 15 mph cap shifts burdens onto vulnerable users, invites inequitable enforcement of delivery workers, widens speed differentials with cars, and risks discouraging mode shift from driving—likely worsening system-wide safety for pedestrians and cyclists."

Adams Backs Ryder Law Horse Carriage Ban▸Sep 23 - Mayor Eric Adams urged the City Council to pass Ryder's Law, a horse‑carriage ban. TWU president John Samuelsen said he was blindsided. Backing the ban would likely remove slow, bulky carriages and modestly reduce conflicts and lane blockages for people walking and biking.
Ryder's Law has no file number listed. On 2025-09-23 Mayor Eric Adams publicly called on the City Council to pass the measure. The City & State headline quoted the reaction: "TWU president slams Eric Adams as “backstabber” over support for horse carriage ban." TWU president John Samuelsen said the mayor blindsided him. No council sponsors or committee assignments are named in the report. Eric Adams is listed as backing the ban. Backing a horse-carriage ban would likely remove slow, bulky vehicles from crowded streets and park loops, reducing conflict points and lane blockages for people walking and biking; expected gains are modest but positive for vulnerable users.
