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.

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.

S 5677 Sepúlveda votes yes on school speed cameras, boosting safety for children.

Jun 12 - Lawmakers back speed cameras near Schenectady schools. The bill passed both chambers. Cameras catch drivers who endanger kids. The program ends in 2030. Streets near schools may get safer. The vote was not unanimous.

Senate Bill S 5677, titled 'Establishes a school speed zone camera demonstration program in the city of Schenectady,' moved through the Senate and Assembly in June 2025. The Senate passed it on June 12, with primary sponsor James Tedisco (District 44) and co-sponsor Patricia Fahy (District 46) leading the push. The Assembly approved it on June 13. The bill sets up automated speed enforcement near schools and sunsets December 31, 2030. The measure aims to catch speeding drivers near children. Some lawmakers voted no, but most supported the move. No formal safety analyst note was provided, but the bill targets a known danger zone for vulnerable road users.


12
S 6815 Sepúlveda votes yes to exempt some employees from bus lane rules.

Jun 12 - Senate and Assembly clear S 6815. MTA workers get a pass for driving in bus lanes while on duty. Law shields agency vehicles from tickets. Streets grow more crowded. Vulnerable users face more risk.

Bill S 6815, titled 'Relates to bus lane restrictions in New York city,' passed the Senate on June 12, 2025, and the Assembly on June 13, 2025. The bill states, 'it shall be a defense to any prosecution for a violation of a bus lane restriction ... when an employee of the metropolitan transportation authority is performing authorized duties.' Sponsored by Senator Leroy Comrie and co-sponsored by Nathalia Fernandez, the measure exempts MTA employees from bus lane tickets while working. No safety analysis was provided. The bill opens bus lanes to more agency vehicles, crowding space meant for buses, cyclists, and pedestrians.


12
S 8344 Sepúlveda votes yes to extend school speed zones, improving child pedestrian safety.

Jun 12 - Senate passes S 8344. School speed zone rules in New York City get extended. Lawmakers make technical fixes. The bill keeps pressure on drivers near schools. Streets stay a little safer for kids.

Bill S 8344, titled 'Extends provisions and makes technical corrections to school speed zones in NYC; repealer,' moved through the Senate and Assembly in June 2025. Sponsored by Senator Andrew Gounardes, the bill passed Senate votes on June 12 and June 13, and cleared the Assembly on June 17. The measure extends and corrects school speed zone laws in New York City, repealing outdated provisions. Gounardes led the push, with strong support from most Senate Democrats and a split Assembly. The bill's technical fixes aim to keep protections in place for children and other vulnerable road users near schools. No safety analyst note was provided.


11
Int 1320-2025 Feliz sponsors bill boosting sidewalk repair penalties, improving pedestrian safety.

Jun 11 - Council targets cracked sidewalks. Owners who ignore repairs face $250 fines. Defects left to fester mean danger for walkers, wheelchair users, and kids. The city moves to hold property owners to account.

Int 1320-2025, now in the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, was introduced June 11, 2025. The bill reads: “imposition of civil penalties on property owners who fail to repair sidewalk defects.” Council Members Oswald Feliz (primary sponsor) and Carlina Rivera (co-sponsor) back the measure. If owners ignore DOT repair orders or leave dangerous cracks, they face $250 fines. The bill aims to force action before someone gets hurt. No safety analyst has yet assessed the impact for vulnerable road users, but the intent is clear: make sidewalks safer by making owners pay for neglect.


11
S 4045 Rivera co-sponsors bill to boost street safety with speed limiters.

Jun 11 - Senate backs S 4045. Repeat speeders face forced installation of speed assistance tech. Eleven points or six camera tickets triggers action. Law targets reckless drivers. Streets may get safer for those outside the car.

Senate bill S 4045, sponsored by Andrew Gounardes and co-sponsored by over two dozen senators, passed committee votes on June 11 and June 12, 2025. The bill, titled 'Relates to requiring the installation of intelligent speed assistance devices for repeated violation of maximum speed limits,' mandates these devices for drivers who rack up eleven or more points in 24 months, or six speed or red light camera tickets in a year. The measure aims to curb repeat dangerous driving. Senators including Jamaal Bailey, Jabari Brisport, and others voted yes. The bill targets drivers with a pattern of violations, seeking to cut risk for pedestrians and cyclists by limiting repeat speeding.

Most senators and assembly members voted yes. The bill aims to catch speeding drivers near schools, a known threat to children and families. No safety analyst note was provided.


11
S 7785 Rivera votes yes to weaken bus rules, increasing pedestrian and cyclist risk.

Jun 11 - Senate passed S 7785. The bill carves out large Mitchell-Lama housing from bus traffic rules. Lawmakers voted yes. The carve-out weakens enforcement. Streets grow less safe for people on foot and bike.

Bill S 7785, titled 'Relates to bus operation-related traffic regulations,' passed the Senate and Assembly in June 2025. The measure, sponsored by Senator Jamaal Bailey, excludes violations in cooperative housing developments with at least 10,000 Mitchell-Lama units from bus operation traffic regulations. The bill advanced through committee and received broad support in both chambers. By exempting these large complexes, the law weakens traffic enforcement where thousands live. This move increases risk to pedestrians and cyclists, stripping away protections that save lives. Vulnerable road users lose another layer of safety in dense city streets.
