- ≥ 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

Bronx CB1: Death on East 149th, and a line of stretchers
Bronx CB1: Jan 1, 2022 - Aug 26, 2025
Bronx CB1 is small on a map. On the ground, it bleeds.
Since 2022, 15 people are dead and 2,387 are hurt in 3,763 crashes here. Pedestrians took 403 injuries and 6 deaths. Cyclists took 246 injuries and 3 deaths. Heavy vehicles—trucks and buses—added weight to the toll. City data shows the count.
East 149th keeps taking people
A taxi going straight on East 149th struck a 61‑year‑old man crossing outside an intersection. He never woke up. The dataset lists “Driver Inattention/Distraction.” Crash 4735638 records it.
Three months later, a 52‑year‑old man died at E 149 St and Morris Ave in a three‑SUV chain reaction. The record lists him as a pedestrian “Other Actions in Roadway.” The death sits in Crash 4803347.
A 57‑year‑old cyclist was going straight on E 149 St at Brook Ave. A Nova bus made a left. He was thrown and died. The city log calls it a left turn. Crash 4795059 is the source.
East 149 Street shows up on the hotspot list with deaths and dozens injured. So does Bruckner. The city’s own rollup names EAST 149 STREET and BRUCKNER BLVD.
Nights and sirens
The injuries stack up after dark. From 8 p.m. to midnight, injuries spike, with the 8 p.m. hour logging 145 injuries and 11 serious cases. Deaths hit at 9 p.m., 10 p.m., and 11 p.m. The clock is a weapon. Hourly data shows it.
“Demand for curb space in the city is increasing,” DOT said in another context about curb changes uptown. The line fits here too, where trucks, buses, SUVs, bikes and feet all fight for inches. The quote comes from the Upper West Side rollout story and is sourced here: West Side Spirit.
Trucks turn. Bodies break.
A tanker truck turned left at Bruckner and Southern. A moped came straight. A 22‑year‑old rear rider died. The entry lists a left turn by the truck. Crash 4820106 says so.
Motorcycles are fragile here. At Saint Anns and East 156th, a 21‑year‑old rider was ejected and died after a collision with an SUV. Crash 4747426 is the record.
The causes in the city ledger are dull words that hide hard endings: inattention, left turns, failure to yield, aggressive moves. “Other” covers the rest. In CB1, that “other” holds 7 deaths and 669 injuries. The dataset carries the weight.
What would stop the next one?
Start with the corners that take the most. Harden left turns. Daylight the crosswalks on East 149 and at Bruckner. Give long leading walk signals. Focus night enforcement where the injuries spike. The map points to EAST 149 STREET and BRUCKNER BLVD.
Citywide, the tools are on the table. Albany renewed 24‑hour school‑zone cameras through 2030, and NYC has the authority to set safer speeds. Our own reporting lays out the steps to drop speeds and rein in repeat speeders. See the plan in our Take Action guide.
Who will stand up the limit? Who will tame the worst drivers?
Sammy’s Law gave NYC the power to set its own limits. Advocates push a 20 mph default. Our guide explains how to press City Hall and the Council. Read it here: Take Action.
In Albany, lawmakers advanced bills to force speed‑limiting tech on repeat offenders. Senator Jose Serrano voted yes in committee on S 4045. Assembly Member Amanda Septimo co‑sponsors the Assembly version, A 2299. The bill targets drivers who rack up points and camera tickets. The summaries are in the legislative records and in our Take Action page.
This is not theory. In CB1, fifteen dead is not theory. It is a street, a corner, a turn, a body. Slow the cars. Fix the turns. Stop the repeat speeders.
Read, then act. One call can move a vote. Start here: Take Action.
