Bronx River Parkway killed two. CB3 streets keep bleeding.

Bronx CB3: Jan 1, 2022 - Aug 25, 2025

Two men went down on the Bronx River Parkway before dawn. Police say a 21‑year‑old in a Mercedes tried to pass, hit a Volkswagen, then struck two motorcycles. The riders, Manuel Amarantepenalo, 19, and Enrique Martinez, 21, were thrown and later died at local hospitals. Prosecutors charged the driver with vehicular manslaughter and DWI. He refused a chemical test, according to the complaint. “He was drunk,” a victim’s sister said outside court. “Two people were killed.” Gothamist and the Daily News reported the charges and the family’s grief.

This crash sits just north of Bronx Community Board 3. The violence does not stop at a line on a map.

Where the street hits back

In CB3 since 2022, there have been 2,634 crashes, leaving 1,641 injured and 12 dead. SUVs and sedans dominate the harm to people on foot: sedans and SUVs account for 220+ pedestrian injuries and 3 pedestrian deaths, while trucks and buses add more serious injuries. NYC Open Data

Crashes peak after dark and into the night. The worst hours include midnight, 1 a.m., 3 a.m., and a surge at the 9–10 p.m. and 8–9 p.m. hours, with another spike at 5 a.m. The 9 p.m. hour alone saw 81 injuries; at 5 a.m., two people died. NYC Open Data

On the map, certain names repeat. East 163rd Street leads with 62 injuries. Webster Avenue appears twice among the top sites, with more than 70 injuries across entries. Park Avenue and Southern Boulevard carry deaths. These are not secrets. They are addresses. NYC Open Data

What kills here

The city’s roll‑up pins much of the damage on “other” driver error, with smaller shares labeled failure to yield, inattention, disregarding signals, and unsafe speed. In this board, speed shows up in the worst outcomes, including a midnight death of a pedestrian at Webster and E 168th, coded “unsafe speed.” NYC Open Data

People outside cars pay the price: since 2022, CB3 recorded 332 pedestrian injuries and 4 pedestrian deaths, plus 137 bicyclist injuries and 2 bicyclist deaths. At East 167th and Washington, a woman crossing with the signal was killed by a westbound SUV. At East 161st and Melrose, a 24‑year‑old bike rider died after a violent impact with an SUV recorded as unlicensed and bearing Pennsylvania plates. These are lines from police forms, not poems. NYC Open Data

Fix the corners, slow the cars

Start where the harm clusters.

  • Daylight and harden turns at East 163rd Street and along Webster Avenue. Protect the crosswalks. Give leading pedestrian intervals and keep them. NYC Open Data
  • Guard night hours. The data shows heavy injury counts after 8 p.m. and around 5 a.m. Aim enforcement and calming when bodies break most. NYC Open Data
  • Push truck routing and curb space management where SUVs and trucks strike walkers. Keep wide vehicles out of tight crossings. NYC Open Data

Albany moved. Will the city?

Lawmakers kept the city’s speed‑camera program alive through 2030. Local legislators voted yes. Senate votes

In June, the Senate advanced a bill to force repeat dangerous drivers to use speed limiters. Senator Luis Sepúlveda voted yes in committee and co‑sponsored it. The measure requires intelligent speed assistance for drivers who rack up violations. S 4045

New York City can also lower speeds under Sammy’s Law. That’s the lever left to pull. Our own reporting lays out how to do it and why it matters. Take action

Two men died. The pattern remains.

“Police have arrested and charged a man with vehicular manslaughter and driving while intoxicated,” Gothamist reported. “The two men… were later pronounced dead.” Gothamist

“Think about how he took two lives,” the sister said outside court. “That’s not fair.” Daily News

In CB3, the names are different, the numbers the same. Corners with blood on them. Nights that do not end.

If you want this to stop, start here: lower speeds citywide and lock repeat speeders to the limit. Then fix the corners where people keep getting hit. S 4045 | speed cameras bill | take action
