Brooklyn CB3: Jan 1, 2022 - Nov 22, 2025

Just after 8 PM on Nov 17, a 48-year-old on a motorcycle was badly hurt at Mac Donough Street and Throop Avenue. Police recorded driver distraction and a severe injury to his entire body (NYC Open Data).

This Week

  • Early on Nov 13 at Willoughby and Broadway, a truck driver turning left hit a man who was crossing with the signal; police cited failure to yield (NYC Open Data).
  • The morning of Nov 12 at Broadway and Woodbine, a truck going straight hit a man at the intersection (NYC Open Data).
  • Near Utica and Fulton on Nov 11, a 66-year-old man was struck off the intersection amid turning traffic from a sedan and a taxi (NYC Open Data).

The count does not stop

Since 2022, 18 people have been killed and 3,878 injured on the streets of Brooklyn CB3. Thirteen of the dead were people walking; one was on a bike (CrashCount analysis of NYC Open Data).

Crashes peak through the afternoon and early evening; the worst hour for deaths is 11 PM, with four lives lost in that window (CrashCount analysis). Police reports in this area again and again note failure to yield and inattention by drivers among the factors in severe crashes (NYC Open Data Persons/Vehicles).

Broadway and Bedford keep breaking people

Two corridors stand out. Broadway and Bedford Avenue each account for two deaths and hundreds of injuries since 2022 (NYC Open Data). Police tied one severe bike crash at Flushing and Throop to a driver’s failure to yield, leaving a 49-year-old with a head laceration (NYC Open Data case 4854231).

Daylight the corners. Harden left turns. Give leading pedestrian intervals where people cross. Focus night enforcement where the bodies fall.

Promises made on Bedford

The city promised protection on Bedford Avenue. “The Bedford Avenue bike lane has been unacceptably dangerous since it was first laid,” Council Member Chi Ossé wrote, blasting DOT for delays (Streetsblog). The lane remained unprotected through repeated deaths and injuries on that corridor.

Albany’s lever for repeat speeders

One law would go at the worst drivers. The Stop Super Speeders Act, S 4045, requires intelligent speed assistance after a record of violations; State Sen. Jabari Brisport co‑sponsored it and voted yes in committee (Open States). The Assembly also voted to keep school‑zone speed cameras running, with Assembly Member Stefani Zinerman voting yes on S 8344 (Open States).

City Hall already has the tool to slow streets. Sammy’s Law lets the city lower limits. Use it. Set 20 MPH on residential streets and enforce it. The next impact is preventable. Take two minutes and push your officials to act here.
