Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in Bronx CB27?
Mustang Hits, City Shrugs: Bronx Streets Bleed While Leaders Stall
Bronx CB27: Jan 1, 2022 - Jul 10, 2025
The Street Does Not Forget
Six people stepped into the crosswalk at East 149th and Courtlandt. A Mustang turned, then surged forward. Metal struck flesh. The car plowed into scaffolding. The driver and passenger ran. “People were yelling, were in pain, so yelling, crying, it was very upsetting,” said Vivian Cole. All six landed in the hospital. The street was left with blood and broken beams. No arrests. No answers.
The Numbers Behind the Names
In the last twelve months, 116 people were injured and one killed in 112 crashes in Bronx CB27. Children were among the hurt. Not one serious injury was recorded, but the wounds linger. Over the past three years, seven have died. Three were pedestrians. Most were hit by cars or SUVs. The numbers do not grieve. They only count.
Leadership: Steps Forward, Steps Back
Council Member Oswald Feliz voted to legalize jaywalking, ending a law that blamed the dead for their own deaths. He co-sponsored bills to daylight intersections and add speed humps near parks. He backed the SAFE Streets Act, calling for lower speed limits and more rights for crash victims. But when it came to Fordham Road, he stood with business owners and blocked a busway that would have protected 85,000 daily riders—many of them walking, many of them at risk. The city passed laws. The street waits for action.
The Voices in the Aftermath
After the Mustang hit, panic spread. “We thought it was a bomb or something, because we are all panicking around here,” said Christina Sieh. The city moved on. The pain stayed.
What Comes Next
Every day of delay is another day of risk. Call your council member. Demand a citywide 20 mph speed limit. Demand protected crossings, busways, and daylighted corners. Demand that the city stop blaming the people who walk and start protecting them. Do not wait for the next siren.
