Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in Bronx CB2?
Red Lights, Broken Bodies: The Bronx Bleeds While Leaders Stall
Bronx CB2: Jan 1, 2022 - Jun 29, 2025
The Blood on the Sidewalk
On June 27, three men walked down Hunts Point Avenue. A car ran the red. The driver kept going, straight into them. One man, 33, is fighting for his life. The others are stable. The driver ran. Police caught him. They charged him with vehicular assault, reckless endangerment, and fleeing. He did not have a license. “Jenkins slammed on the gas and sped off east on Hunts Point Ave., blowing through a red light,” police said.
This is not rare. In the last 12 months, Bronx CB2 saw 3 deaths and 442 injuries from crashes. Children, elders, workers. The street does not care.
The Numbers That Do Not Lie
Since 2022, 10 people have died and 1,471 have been hurt in crashes here. Cars and trucks did most of the damage. They killed 3, left 2 with serious injuries, and hurt 176 more. Trucks and buses killed 1, seriously injured 3, and hurt 23. Motorcycles, mopeds, and bikes left their own scars, but the big machines do the worst.
What Leaders Have Done—And Not Done
Council Member Rafael Salamanca, Jr. has backed bills to tow abandoned cars, fix NYCHA sidewalks, and target fake plates. He voted yes to legalize jaywalking, ending a law that blamed the walker, not the driver. He co-sponsored a bill to tow unregistered vehicles, but it stalled. He missed a vote on the greenway plan.
Senator Sepúlveda has pushed for more red tape before new bike lanes, a move that slows safety. Advocates called his bill “boneheaded.” Assembly Member Septimo has backed speed limiters for repeat offenders. Some progress. Not enough.
The Call That Cannot Wait
Every week, another body hits the pavement. Every week, another family waits in the ER. This is not fate. It is policy. It is delay. It is silence.
Call your council member. Call your senator. Tell them to stop the bleeding. Demand a 20 mph speed limit. Demand real street redesigns. Demand action, not excuses.
