Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in Bronx CB12?
Two Dead, No Excuses: Bronx Parkway Slaughter Demands Action
Bronx CB12: Jan 1, 2022 - Aug 12, 2025
Blood on the Parkway
Just days ago, two men died on the Bronx River Parkway. A Mercedes changed lanes, struck a Volkswagen, then hit the scooter riders. Both men were thrown from their scooters and died at the hospital. Police charged the driver with vehicular manslaughter and driving while intoxicated. The crash left the highway closed for hours. “The men were ejected from their scooters and fatally injured in the collision. Both were pronounced dead at the hospital, NYPD said.”
This is not rare. In the last twelve months, nine people have died and twelve have been seriously injured in crashes in Bronx CB12. Children, elders, cyclists, and pedestrians are all at risk.
The Numbers Do Not Lie
Since January 2022, there have been 14 deaths and 36 serious injuries on these streets. SUVs and cars caused most of the harm—killing four, injuring hundreds. Trucks and buses killed two more. Motorcycles and mopeds left bodies broken. Bikes, too, are not spared. The violence is steady. The grief is constant.
What Leaders Have Done—And Not Done
Some leaders have acted. State Senator Jamaal Bailey voted yes in committee, boosting street safety by curbing repeat speeders. Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie has backed red light camera expansion, but he also blocked a vote on Sammy’s Law, which would let the city lower speed limits.
The dead cannot vote. The living must speak for them.
What Comes Next
Call your council member. Call your state senator. Demand a 20 mph speed limit. Demand speed cameras on every deadly stretch. Demand action, not delay.
Every day we wait, another family risks losing someone they love.
