East 34th and 2nd: a woman in the crosswalk, a driver turning right

Manhattan CB6: Jan 1, 2022 - Oct 15, 2025

The count does not stop

Since 2022, Manhattan CB6 has recorded 12 people killed and 2,759 injured across 4,706 crashes. Data.

This year, four people have died here. By this point last year, it was zero. Crashes are down to 925 from 977, and injuries to 561 from 610, while serious injuries edged up to 10 from 9. Stats.

On Jul 29, 2025, a 65‑year‑old man on a bike was killed at E 15th St and 2nd Ave. Crash record.

Early on Oct 10, a bicyclist was “struck and killed by a dump truck on the FDR Drive near 23rd Street in Manhattan,” police said. Gothamist.

Where the blood pools

Injury peaks at the evening rush. The 4 PM hour saw 181 injuries; 7 PM saw 157. Open Data.

Hot corridors repeat. FDR Drive and 1st Avenue each top the local list for the severest harm. Open Data.

Police records name familiar failures: inattention/distraction (86 injuries), disregarding signals (32), and failure to yield (26). Open Data.

Trucks and buses have killed two people walking here. Open Data.

What leaders can do now

This board includes Council District District 4, Assembly District AD 74, and State Senate District SD 59. Albany already gave the city tools to slow cars. The Senate advanced a speed‑limiter bill for repeat offenders: S 4045. Sen. Kristen Gonzalez co‑sponsored it and voted yes in committee. Open States. In the Assembly, A 2299 has local backing: Assembly Member Harvey Epstein is a co‑sponsor. Source.

At the city level, congestion pricing hardware sits idle after the program’s pause. Council Member Keith Powers said the state “should take advantage of this very expensive infrastructure in Midtown,” pushing to redeploy it for enforcement. NY Post.

Local fixes are not theory. Daylighting corners, hardened turns, and leading pedestrian intervals protect people where drivers fail. FDR Drive and 1st Avenue need it most. Target trucks at those hotspots and the evening hours when injuries spike.

Slow the cars, stop the repeats

The pattern is plain on these blocks: turning drivers hit people in the crosswalk; distraction and failure to yield repeat. Four dead this year. Zero by this time last year. The Assembly can pass the speed‑limiter bill; the city can lower speeds and harden the turns. Start here.

Take one step now. Ask your officials to act: /take_action/.
