A bike, a Tesla, and a corner at 2 AM
Brooklyn CB1: Jan 1, 2022 - Oct 10, 2025
Just after 2 AM on Sep 27, 2025, at Meserole Street and Leonard Street, a 32-year-old woman riding a bike was hit and killed in a crash that involved a Tesla sedan and parked cars (NYC Open Data).
She is one of 25 people killed on Brooklyn Community Board 1 streets since 2022, including six people on bikes and nine people walking (CrashCount analysis of NYC Open Data).
This year, 10 people are already dead here, compared with 5 by this point last year (CrashCount analysis of NYC Open Data).
This Week
- Sep 27: A 32-year-old woman on a bike was killed at Meserole Street and Leonard Street in a multi-vehicle crash (NYC Open Data).
- Sep 26: A 14-year-old boy riding a bike was injured in a collision with a box truck near 990 Grand Street (NYC Open Data).
Where the blood pools
Morgan Avenue shows the worst toll, with three deaths since 2022. Broadway and Union Avenue also rank high for injuries and deaths here (CrashCount analysis of NYC Open Data).
Police reports flag driver inattention and failure to yield again and again. In this board area, officers recorded injuries tied to driver inattention/distraction and failure to yield in dozens of crashes (CrashCount analysis of NYC Open Data).
Deaths pile up in the dark and at the edges of the day. The hours around 3 AM and 7 PM each saw multiple deaths since 2022 (CrashCount analysis of NYC Open Data).
Trucks turn, people die
Three pedestrians were killed by truck drivers on CB1 streets since 2023: a man on Maspeth Avenue at Morgan Avenue; a child at Withers Street and Woodpoint Road; and a woman at Nassau Avenue and Sutton Street. Each case lists a truck in the fatal movement (Aug 6, 2025, Mar 1, 2025, Feb 21, 2024).
On bikes, the body count grows: a 64-year-old man at Lorimer Street and Broadway; a 46-year-old man at Lynch Street and Union Avenue; and the 32-year-old woman at Meserole and Leonard. All three died in crashes that involved cars or SUVs, and in two cases police noted turning or control failures by drivers (Feb 27, 2024, Sep 1, 2024, Sep 27, 2025).
Promises meet pavement
On McGuinness Boulevard, the push to slow and narrow the road has been public for years. As Assembly Member Emily Gallagher said, urging the mayor to act, “stay the course.”
There are concrete steps on the table right now:
- Daylight corners and harden turns at Morgan Avenue, Union Avenue, and other high-injury spots; add leading pedestrian intervals; and design for slow speeds. The crash record at these sites demands it (CrashCount analysis of NYC Open Data).
- Keep trucks out of tight turns on neighborhood streets with routing and turn-calming at known danger points like Withers/Woodpoint and Nassau/Sutton (Feb 21, 2024; Mar 1, 2025; Aug 6, 2025).
- Target the evening and late-night hours when deaths cluster for lighting, design fixes, and enforcement at repeat hotspots (CrashCount analysis of NYC Open Data).
Who moves the needle
Albany’s repeat-speeder fix is moving. The Senate’s S 4045 would require intelligent speed assistance for drivers with repeated violations. State Senator Julia Salazar co-sponsored and voted yes in committee, per the record, and State Senator Andrew Gounardes sponsors it. In the Assembly, Emily Gallagher sponsors the companion A 2299 (CrashCount timeline; NY Senate).
At City Hall, Council Member Jennifer Gutiérrez co-sponsors Int. 1353 to speed safety devices near schools, and Council Member Lincoln Restler co-sponsors Int. 1375 to expand secure bike parking—basic steps that make walking and riding safer (NYC Council Legistar: Int 1353, Int 1375).
The board’s streets keep taking lives. The tools sit on desks.
One more intersection after dark. One more family waiting at a corner that never got fixed.
Take one step that matters: ask City Hall and Albany to use the tools now. Start here: Take Action.

Restler co-sponsors expansion of bike parking stations, improving overall safety.▸Sep 10 - Int. 1375 orders DOT to install 5,000 bike parking stations over five years. 1,000 a year. 400 on commercial blocks. It cuts sidewalk clutter, houses bikes off the curb, and strengthens safety for riders and pedestrians.
Int. No. 1375 is at SPONSORSHIP. Introduced 02/26/2025; event date 2025-09-10. Committee: Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure. The measure, titled "A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to expanding the bicycle parking station program," would require DOT to install at least 5,000 bicycle parking stations over five years (1,000 per year; at least 400 on commercial blocks), post locations online, and deliver a one-time report within six years. Tiffany Cabán is the primary sponsor; Lincoln Restler and Gale A. Brewer are co-sponsors. Safety analysts note that expanding secure, well-sited bike parking—especially on commercial blocks and in underserved areas—supports mode shift, reduces sidewalk clutter from ad hoc parking, and improves end-of-trip safety; impact will be strongest if DOT prioritizes curb/roadway placement over sidewalks to protect pedestrian space.

Restler co-sponsors expansion of bike parking stations, improving overall safety.▸Sep 10 - Int. 1375 orders DOT to install 5,000 bike parking stations over five years. 1,000 a year. 400 on commercial blocks. It cuts sidewalk clutter, houses bikes off the curb, and strengthens safety for riders and pedestrians.
Int. No. 1375 is at SPONSORSHIP. Introduced 02/26/2025; event date 2025-09-10. Committee: Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure. The measure, titled "A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to expanding the bicycle parking station program," would require DOT to install at least 5,000 bicycle parking stations over five years (1,000 per year; at least 400 on commercial blocks), post locations online, and deliver a one-time report within six years. Tiffany Cabán is the primary sponsor; Lincoln Restler and Gale A. Brewer are co-sponsors. Safety analysts note that expanding secure, well-sited bike parking—especially on commercial blocks and in underserved areas—supports mode shift, reduces sidewalk clutter from ad hoc parking, and improves end-of-trip safety; impact will be strongest if DOT prioritizes curb/roadway placement over sidewalks to protect pedestrian space.

It cuts sidewalk clutter, houses bikes off the curb, and strengthens safety for riders and pedestrians.
Int. No. 1375 is at SPONSORSHIP. Introduced 02/26/2025; event date 2025-09-10. Committee: Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure. The measure, titled "A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to expanding the bicycle parking station program," would require DOT to install at least 5,000 bicycle parking stations over five years (1,000 per year; at least 400 on commercial blocks), post locations online, and deliver a one-time report within six years. Tiffany Cabán is the primary sponsor; Lincoln Restler and Gale A. Brewer are co-sponsors. Safety analysts note that expanding secure, well-sited bike parking—especially on commercial blocks and in underserved areas—supports mode shift, reduces sidewalk clutter from ad hoc parking, and improves end-of-trip safety; impact will be strongest if DOT prioritizes curb/roadway placement over sidewalks to protect pedestrian space.
