Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in Bronx CB5?
Sidewalks Are Battlefields—Slow the Cars, Spare the Bodies
Bronx CB5: Jan 1, 2022 - Jul 24, 2025
The Slow March of Harm
No one died in Bronx CB5 this year. But the streets did not spare the living. In the past twelve months, 604 people were hurt in crashes here. Seven suffered serious injuries. Children, elders, workers—no one is immune. The numbers do not bleed, but the people do.
Just weeks ago, a driver in a Ford Mustang failed a left turn and plowed into six people at East 149th and Courtlandt. The car mounted the sidewalk. The driver ran. Six went to the hospital. Police are still looking for the man who did this. Police are looking for a man who rammed into six people after botching a turn at an intersection in the Bronx, the report read. The sidewalk is no refuge.
Last year, a driver ran over a man at a Bronx gas station, dragged him nearly a thousand feet, stopped, looked, and left him behind. The Bronx District Attorney called it “egregious and show[ing] a lack of humanity.” The defendant allegedly drove her car over the victim… then after looking under her vehicle… she allegedly drove away without reporting what happened.
The Vehicles That Harm
Cars and SUVs did the most damage. They killed two pedestrians and left nine with serious injuries. Trucks and buses killed one and hurt more. Motorcycles and mopeds struck dozens. Even bikes are not blameless. The street is a gauntlet, and the most vulnerable pay the price.
What Leaders Have Done—and Not Done
Local leaders have taken steps. Senator Gustavo Rivera and Assembly Member Yudelka Tapia voted to extend school speed zones and co-sponsored bills to force repeat speeders to install speed limiters. These are good moves. But the carnage continues. The city can lower the speed limit to 20 mph now. It has not. The most dangerous drivers still roam free.
Call to Action
This is not fate. It is policy. Every delay is another body on the street. Call your council member. Call the mayor. Demand a 20 mph speed limit. Demand action against repeat speeders. Do not wait for another name to be added to the list.
