Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in Bronx CB11?
How Many More Must Die Before the City Acts?
Bronx CB11: Jan 1, 2022 - Jun 17, 2025
The Slow Grind of Loss
In Bronx CB11, the numbers do not lie. Five people killed. Twenty-one left with serious injuries. In three and a half years, 1,414 neighbors have been hurt in 2,413 crashes. The dead include a 16-year-old girl, a 51-year-old woman, a 91-year-old man. Each was walking. Each was struck at an intersection. Each is gone.
The latest year brought no deaths, but the wounds keep coming. 262 people injured since January. The pain does not stop. It only moves from one family to the next.
The Crashes Keep Coming
The headlines are blunt. An ambulance and a box truck collided at Pelham Parkway South and Williamsbridge Road. Three people were hurt. The cause is still under investigation. Police are still searching for a driver who fled after killing a pedestrian in May. “Police are searching for a driver who allegedly fled after striking and killing a pedestrian in the Bronx early Saturday morning,” reported CBS New York.
Leadership: Words, Laws, and Waiting
City Hall talks of Vision Zero. The city lowered speed limits in some places. Cameras catch speeders, but only where the law allows. The mayor says, “One life lost to traffic violence is one life too many,” but the deaths keep coming. The council can lower speeds to 20 mph. They have not done it citywide. The state lets cameras run, but the law is always up for renewal. Each delay is a risk. Each risk is a name on a stone.
What You Can Do
This is not fate. This is policy. Call your council member. Call the mayor. Demand a 20 mph speed limit on every street. Demand cameras that never go dark. Demand streets that put people first. Do not wait for another name. Act now. Take action here.
