No More Bodies in the Road: Drop the Speed, Save a Life
Brooklyn CB1: Jan 1, 2022 - Jun 7, 2025
The Bodies in the Road
In Brooklyn CB1—Greenpoint, Williamsburg, South Williamsburg, East Williamsburg—the numbers do not lie. Sixteen people are dead. Forty-five are seriously injured. In the last twelve months alone, six families lost someone forever. Eight hundred fifty-two people were hurt. The dead do not get a second chance.
A man steps out of his car in Greenpoint. An e-bike runs the stop sign. He dies on the street. “He died basically on the spot,” said a witness. No arrest. No comfort. The intersection is known for this. “It’s not a unicorn incident. It’s happened a lot. I’ve seen several people get swiped,” the same witness said.
A three-year-old girl steps from a double-parked car onto Bedford Avenue. An e-bike slams into her. She is knocked down. She goes to the hospital. The cyclist stays at the scene. No arrest. The New York Post showed the video.
A dump truck turns in Williamsburg. A man kneels to pick up food. The truck hits him and keeps going. He does not get up. The driver leaves the scene. No arrests. The city moves on. Gothamist reported it. The street stays the same.
The Vehicles That Kill
Trucks and SUVs crush. Cars maim. E-bikes and mopeds, too, take their share. In three years: trucks and buses killed three, cars and SUVs killed one, bikes killed two. The rest are injuries—hundreds, each year, from every kind of machine. The city counts the bodies. The city counts the broken.
What Leaders Have Done—and Not Done
Local leaders talk of Vision Zero. They talk of safer streets. The city passed Sammy’s Law. Now, they can lower speed limits to 20 mph. But the limit is not lowered. The cameras that catch speeders are at risk—Albany must act, or they go dark. The city redesigns intersections, but the deaths keep coming. The silence is loud. The delay is deadly.
What Comes Next
This is not fate. This is policy. Every day leaders wait, more lives are lost. Call your council member. Call the mayor. Demand the 20 mph limit. Demand speed cameras stay on. Demand streets that do not kill. Take action now.
