We group pedestrian injuries and deaths by the vehicle type that struck them (as recorded in police reports). Use the dropdown to view totals, serious injuries, or deaths.
- Trucks/Buses, SUVs/Cars, Mopeds, and Bikes reflect the reporting categories in the crash dataset.
- Counts include people on foot only; crashes with no injured pedestrians are not shown here.
Notes: Police classification can change during investigations. Small categories may have year-to-year variance.
CloseAbout these numbers
These totals count vehicles with at least the shown number of camera‑issued speeding violations (school‑zone speed cameras) in any rolling 12‑month window in this district. Totals are summed from 2022 to the present for this geography.
- ≥ 6 (6+): advocates’ standard for repeat speeding offenders who should face escalating consequences.
- ≥ 16 (16+): threshold in the current edited bill awaiting State Senate action.
About this list
This ranks vehicles by the number of NYC school‑zone speed‑camera violations they received in the last 12 months anywhere in the city. The smaller note shows how many times the same plate was caught in this area in the last 90 days.
Camera violations are issued by NYC DOT’s program. Counts reflect issued tickets and may omit dismissed or pending cases. Plate text is shown verbatim as recorded.
CloseBronx CB26: Evening roads, broken bodies, and a choice
Bronx CB26: Jan 1, 2022 - Sep 17, 2025
Just after Aug 3, 2025, at W 242nd and Broadway, a driver hit a 76-year-old man who was walking. Police logged a hip and leg injury and sent him to care (NYC Open Data).
Since 2022, on these CB26 streets, 1 person has been killed and 337 injured in 428 crashes, with 5 serious injuries recorded (NYC Open Data). The toll keeps coming.
This Week
- Aug 23: on the Major Deegan, an SUV driver hit a parked ambulance; a 9-year-old girl was listed unconscious with head trauma (NYC Open Data).
- Aug 7: on the Major Deegan, a driver changing lanes hit a pickup; the other driver suffered whiplash (NYC Open Data).
- Jul 19: on the Major Deegan, a driver in a sedan hit a person on an e‑bike; the rider was hurt (NYC Open Data).
Where it hurts
The Major Deegan is the hot spot. It leads this area in injuries and includes the one recorded death (NYC Open Data). Henry Hudson Parkway follows. Broadway at West 242nd shows repeated harm.
The pattern swells at night. Injuries climb in the evening and late hours, with a peak around 6–7 PM and another near 11 PM; the single death hit the 7 PM hour (NYC Open Data). Speed shows up in crash records here, and distraction is noted too (NYC Open Data).
Simple fixes at deadly corners
Cut conflict at the curb: daylight corners and harden turns on Broadway and along the Deegan access roads. Give people on foot a head start with leading pedestrian intervals. Slow the entries and exits with raised crosswalks and tighter radii. Target evening enforcement where the harm piles up.
The record, in their own words
Assembly Member Jeffrey Dinowitz has pushed camera enforcement. “People shouldn’t run red lights… when they do that they endanger other people’s lives, and people have died,” he said as Albany moved to expand cameras citywide (Gothamist).
Council Member Eric Dinowitz co‑sponsored a bill to let ambulettes drive and double‑park in bus lanes to pick up passengers (Int 1339‑2025) (NYC Council Legistar). More vehicles standing in bus lanes means more crossings through live traffic at the curb. On the Harlem River Greenway plan, the Dinowitzes opposed removing parking for a protected bike lane on Bailey Avenue; “We support bike lanes,” Assembly Member Dinowitz said (Streetsblog NYC).
State Senator Gustavo Rivera co‑sponsored and voted yes in committee for S4045 to require speed‑limiters for repeat violators (Open States). That bill targets drivers who rack up eleven or more DMV points in 24 months, or six camera tickets in a year (Open States).
What must change now
- Lower speeds on every block: New York has the power to set safer limits. Use it. See our steps to press City Hall and DOT here.
- Stop repeat speeders: the Senate bill S4045 is moving; the Assembly must match it. Residents can push for passage and enforcement that keeps limiters on the worst offenders (Open States).
One man hit at Broadway and West 242nd. One death logged in this district. The evening hours keep filling with sirens. It does not have to.
Take one step today. Add your voice to slow the streets and rein in repeat speeders: Take action.

Rivera Backs Safety-Boosting Cross Bronx Comment Extension▸Dec 3 - Rep. Ritchie Torres and advocates demand more time to review a 6,000‑page Cross Bronx draft environmental assessment. A 53‑day, holiday‑filled window shrinks community input and risks car‑centric outcomes that harm pedestrians, cyclists, and equity communities.
""We need time, and we're not going to have it,"" -- Gustavo Rivera
This is not a council bill. It is a request to extend the public comment period on the Cross Bronx draft environmental assessment (no bill number). The draft EA was released after hours on Nov. 18; the public was given until Jan. 9 — a 53‑day window. "The public was given until just Jan. 9 to weigh in on the 6,000‑page document — a 53‑day period that includes multiple holidays." Rep. Ritchie Torres wrote to Gov. Hochul and NYSDOT Commissioner Marie Therese Dominguez asking for more time. State Sen. Gustavo Rivera and local advocates pressed the same plea. A 53‑day, holiday‑laden comment window limits meaningful input from pedestrians, cyclists, and equity‑seeking communities and raises the risk that car‑centric, unsafe designs will advance.
