Bronx CB6: riders down, promises pending
Bronx CB6: Jan 1, 2022 - Aug 25, 2025
Two young men went down on the Bronx River Parkway before dawn. Police say a 21‑year‑old in a Mercedes tried to pass, clipped a Volkswagen, then hit two bikes. Both riders were thrown and died at the hospital. Officials named them as Manuel Amarantepenalo, 19, and Enrique Martinez, 21. A criminal complaint notes the driver had “a strong odor of alcohol” and stood unsteady after the crash. He refused a chemical test and faces vehicular manslaughter and DWI charges, reporters wrote. “Two people were killed. He was drunk,” said a victim’s sister outside court. The case is still open.
— CBS New York | Gothamist | NY Daily News
Gothamist quoted the complaint and named the dead. It also recorded the sister’s words: “Two people were killed. He was drunk. Think about how he took two lives.” The parkway shut near Gun Hill as the bodies were moved.
— Gothamist
CBS said police took one person into custody at the scene that morning, before the charges were filed.

Where the blood pools
Bronx CB6 sits under three names: West Farms, Tremont, Belmont. The worst spots tell the story. EAST TREMONT AVENUE leads the list with 152 injuries and one death. EAST FORDHAM ROAD follows with 103 injuries and one death. SOUTHERN BOULEVARD shows two deaths and 44 injuries. These are not rumors. They are counts.
— NYC Open Data
Pedestrians keep taking the hit. Three died since 2022. An SUV struck and killed a baby boy off East Tremont at East 177th. A flatbed truck killed a 69‑year‑old man on East Fordham. Names aren’t in the file. The injuries are.
— CrashID 4611711 | CrashID 4652464
Other riders die too. A 67‑year‑old woman on an e‑bike was killed by a right‑turning SUV at Park Ave and East 188th. Another person on an e‑bike was killed at Park Ave and East 183rd. Turning steel. Soft bodies.
— CrashID 4569876 | CrashID 4703164
When it happens most
The harm spikes as the day leans to night. Deaths stack at 6 p.m., 7 p.m., and 10 p.m. The injuries pile up at the rush hours too: 8 a.m., 2–5 p.m. These hours are not suggestions. They are patterns.
— NYC Open Data
Softer users bear it. Since 2022, pedestrians saw 361 injuries and three deaths here; people on bikes had 136 injuries; riders on mopeds and similar devices had 94 injuries and two deaths. SUVs and cars top the roll of pedestrian harm. Trucks and buses add their share.
— PeriodStats
Why it keeps happening
The city’s roll‑up points to failures we know by feel at the curb: failure to yield, red lights blown, inattention, unsafe speed. On paper, “other” leads the deaths, but the shape looks the same. People cross. Cars turn. Someone doesn’t stop. Someone doesn’t walk away.
— NYC Open Data
Fixes are not magic. They are paint, plastic, and time. Daylight the corners on EAST TREMONT and EAST FORDHAM. Harden the lefts on SOUTHERN BOULEVARD. Put leading pedestrian intervals where bodies fell. Target the evening peaks with enforcement where the numbers rise.
— NYC Open Data
The laws we have. The laws we need.
Albany gave New York City the power to set lower speed limits. The city can choose 20 mph on local streets. That choice has not been made. You can ask for it.
— Take Action
The Legislature moved another lever this year. The Stop Super Speeders Act (S4045) advanced in Senate committees with yes votes from local senators and co‑sponsors. It would force chronic violators to install speed limiters after repeated tickets or points. The goal is simple: stop the fastest few from killing the many.
— Open States: S4045
Albany also renewed 24‑hour school‑zone speed cameras through 2030. The cameras are set. The next step is slower streets and controls on the worst repeat offenders.
— Take Action
What now
This district knows loss by corners and clocks. EAST TREMONT. EAST FORDHAM. SOUTHERN BOULEVARD. The evening hours. The turn that doesn’t end. Two young riders gone on the parkway. A baby gone off Tremont. The map is written in short lines. The lines do not end on their own.
Want this to stop? Push for a citywide 20 mph default and speed limiters for repeat speeders. Start here: act now.

Feliz votes yes to decriminalize jaywalking, boosting pedestrian safety citywide.▸Sep 26 - Council ends jaywalking penalties. Pedestrians now cross anywhere, any time. No summons. Law strips drivers of excuses. Streets shift. Power tilts to people on foot.
Int 0346-2024, now enacted, rewrites New York’s pedestrian rules. The bill, heard by the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, passed on September 26, 2024, and became law on October 26, 2024. Its title: “A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to pedestrian crossing guidelines and right of way.” Sponsored by Council Member Tiffany Cabán and co-sponsored by Narcisse, Won, Hanif, Hudson, and Restler, the law lets pedestrians cross streets anywhere, even against signals. No more tickets for crossing outside crosswalks. The Department of Transportation must educate all street users on new rights and responsibilities. The law removes a tool police used to target walkers. It shifts blame from people on foot to the system and those behind the wheel.

Feliz votes yes to decriminalize jaywalking, boosting pedestrian safety citywide.▸Sep 26 - Council ends jaywalking penalties. Pedestrians now cross anywhere, any time. No summons. Law strips drivers of excuses. Streets shift. Power tilts to people on foot.
Int 0346-2024, now enacted, rewrites New York’s pedestrian rules. The bill, heard by the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, passed on September 26, 2024, and became law on October 26, 2024. Its title: “A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to pedestrian crossing guidelines and right of way.” Sponsored by Council Member Tiffany Cabán and co-sponsored by Narcisse, Won, Hanif, Hudson, and Restler, the law lets pedestrians cross streets anywhere, even against signals. No more tickets for crossing outside crosswalks. The Department of Transportation must educate all street users on new rights and responsibilities. The law removes a tool police used to target walkers. It shifts blame from people on foot to the system and those behind the wheel.

Sep 26 - Council ends jaywalking penalties. Pedestrians now cross anywhere, any time. No summons. Law strips drivers of excuses. Streets shift. Power tilts to people on foot.
Int 0346-2024, now enacted, rewrites New York’s pedestrian rules. The bill, heard by the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, passed on September 26, 2024, and became law on October 26, 2024. Its title: “A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to pedestrian crossing guidelines and right of way.” Sponsored by Council Member Tiffany Cabán and co-sponsored by Narcisse, Won, Hanif, Hudson, and Restler, the law lets pedestrians cross streets anywhere, even against signals. No more tickets for crossing outside crosswalks. The Department of Transportation must educate all street users on new rights and responsibilities. The law removes a tool police used to target walkers. It shifts blame from people on foot to the system and those behind the wheel.
