CloseAbout these numbers
These totals count vehicles with at least the shown number of camera‑issued speeding violations (school‑zone speed cameras) in any rolling 12‑month window in this district. Totals are summed from 2022 to the present for this geography.
- ≥ 6 (6+): advocates’ standard for repeat speeding offenders who should face escalating consequences.
- ≥ 16 (16+): threshold in the current edited bill awaiting State Senate action.
About this list
This ranks vehicles by the number of NYC school‑zone speed‑camera violations they received in the last 12 months anywhere in the city. The smaller note shows how many times the same plate was caught in this area in the last 90 days.
Camera violations are issued by NYC DOT’s program. Counts reflect issued tickets and may omit dismissed or pending cases. Plate text is shown verbatim as recorded.

Two people, one street, one driver backing up
Manhattan CB7: Jan 1, 2022 - Nov 1, 2025
On Oct 24, 2025, on W 76th Street near 216, a driver backing an SUV hit a 34‑year‑old woman and a 7‑year‑old girl outside a crosswalk. Police recorded driver inattention and inexperience as factors (NYC Open Data).
The toll does not stop
Since 2022, people walking here have paid with their lives. Nine pedestrians have been killed in Manhattan CB7, with 397 more injured, alongside two cyclists killed and hundreds hurt (NYC Open Data). The deaths come on ordinary corners: Amsterdam Avenue at W 96th Street, where a left‑turning SUV killed a 69‑year‑old woman on Nov 12, 2024 (NYC Open Data); Cathedral Parkway at Manhattan Avenue, where a 13‑year‑old girl was killed on Oct 24, 2024 (NYC Open Data).
The pattern is steady. This year, crashes in this district are up 2.8% from last year to 693, and deaths rose from 2 to 6 (NYC Open Data). Late afternoons are cruel: at 2 PM alone, three people were killed across the period; at 4 PM, five people suffered serious injuries (NYC Open Data).
Where it hurts
Broadway, Amsterdam Avenue, Columbus Avenue, West End Avenue, and the Henry Hudson Parkway are repeat sites for injuries and death in this district (NYC Open Data). Police reports here name failure to yield, inattention/distraction, disregarding traffic controls, and unsafe speed among the recorded factors in crashes that kill and maim (NYC Open Data).
These are not acts of God. A left turn. A glance down. A foot too heavy at the wrong second. People on foot do not walk away from that.
The fixes that are on the table
City law now allows New York to lower speed limits. Albany advanced Sammy’s Law to “allow NYC to lower [the] speed limit to 20 mph,” and advocates said, “Lower speed limits save lives” (amNY). The city can choose to use it.
In Albany, the Stop Super Speeders Act would require repeat violators to use speed‑limiting technology (S4045/A2299) (S 4045, A 2299). Our State Senator Brad Hoylman‑Sigal co‑sponsored S 4045 and voted yes in committee (S 4045). Our Assembly Member Linda Rosenthal co‑sponsored the Assembly version (A 2299) and also backed a bill to expand camera enforcement against plate obstruction and extend speed cameras (A 7997) (A 7997). Our Council Member Gale A. Brewer co‑sponsored a daylighting bill to ban parking near crosswalks (Int 1138‑2024) in the Council record.
Local steps are plain:
- Daylight every crosswalk on Amsterdam, Broadway, and Columbus to stop blind turns and yield failures (Council bill on daylighting is co‑sponsored by Brewer in the record).
- Add leading pedestrian intervals and hardened left turns at known turn‑crash corners like Amsterdam at W 96th.
- Target enforcement to peak danger hours, 2–5 PM, at the corridors above.
Use the tools or count the bodies
The mother and child on W 76th Street lived. Others did not. The path forward is written in the record, not in hope.
Lower the speed. Curb the repeat offenders. Fix the turns. Call for it now. See how, here.

It cuts sidewalk clutter, houses bikes off the curb, and strengthens safety for riders and pedestrians.
Int. No. 1375 is at SPONSORSHIP. Introduced 02/26/2025; event date 2025-09-10. Committee: Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure. The measure, titled "A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to expanding the bicycle parking station program," would require DOT to install at least 5,000 bicycle parking stations over five years (1,000 per year; at least 400 on commercial blocks), post locations online, and deliver a one-time report within six years.

The matter is titled: "A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to expanding the bicycle parking station program." Council Member Carlina Rivera is the primary sponsor. Gale A. Brewer is co-sponsor. The bill would require DOT to install 5,000 bicycle parking stations over five years (1,000/year; at least 400 commercial-block stations/year), post locations online, and submit a one-time report within six years.

Int. No. 1375 is at SPONSORSHIP. Introduced 02/26/2025; event date 2025-09-10. Committee: Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure.
