No Safe Haven: Manhattan Streets Still Bleed
Manhattan CB9: Jan 1, 2022 - Jun 6, 2025
The Toll on Our Streets
A sedan strikes two people on Broadway. A police car, lights flashing, swerves to avoid a taxi and plows into diners at a sidewalk table. The city calls it an investigation. The people call it pain. In the last twelve months, one person died and 309 were injured in crashes across Manhattan Community Board 9. Six were left with serious injuries. The numbers do not bleed, but the streets do.
Vulnerable First, Always Last
Pedestrians and cyclists take the brunt. In three years, seven people have died. Over 1,100 have been hurt. Cars and SUVs are the main weapons: 1 death, 59 moderate injuries, 2 serious injuries from these vehicles alone. Bikes, trucks, taxis—they all leave their mark, but the story is the same. The sidewalk is not safe. The crosswalk is not safe. The curb is not safe.
On May 27, a police cruiser hit two people eating outside. The NYPD spokesperson said, “The chaos erupted as the police cruiser, with lights flashing and sirens blaring, was traveling north on Broadway… when a cab heading south attempted a leisurely left turn onto West 112th Street” (New York Post). Both diners and officers went to the hospital. The taxi driver got a summons for failing to yield. The investigation is ongoing. The pain is not.
Leaders Talk, Streets Wait
Local leaders say the right words. The city claims progress, touting new speed limits and more cameras. But the blood dries slow. “NYPD officers will be highly visible on New York City roadways… to deter unsafe driving and, when necessary, to take appropriate enforcement action,” (NY Daily News). Cameras and enforcement help, but the danger remains. The city has the power to lower speed limits to 20 mph. They have not used it. Every day of delay is another roll of the dice for someone crossing the street.
What Now: Demand Action
This is not fate. This is policy. Call your council member. Call the mayor. Demand a 20 mph speed limit. Demand more protected space for people, not cars. Join Transportation Alternatives or Families for Safe Streets. Do not wait for another name on the list. The city will not act unless you force their hand.
The crisis is slow, but it is relentless. Make your voice relentless too.
