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.

Four corners, one pattern: Brooklyn CB6’s street toll keeps rising
Brooklyn CB6: Jan 1, 2022 - Oct 12, 2025
About 3 PM on Oct 2, at Richards Street and Commerce Street, a driver in a 2024 Ford SUV hit a woman on a bike; police logged driver inattention and a traffic signal violation, and she was hurt in the leg (NYC Open Data).
This Week
- Oct 1: at Court Street and Union Street, a left‑turning box‑truck driver hit a man on a bike and injured him (NYC Open Data).
- Oct 1: near 5th Avenue in Park Slope, an SUV and an e‑bike collided; police recorded unsafe speed and the rider was injured (NYC Open Data).
- Sept 28: at 4th Avenue and 11th Street, a driver in a sedan hit a 19‑year‑old on a bike; police cited failure to yield and disregarding traffic control (NYC Open Data).
The grind does not stop
Since Jan 1, 2022, Brooklyn CB6 has logged 4,996 crashes, 2,271 injuries, 31 serious injuries, and 14 deaths (NYC Open Data). People walking account for 4 deaths and 333 injuries; people on bikes, 2 deaths and 420 injuries (NYC Open Data). Police records point again and again to human choices behind the wheel: failure to yield in 18 injuries with 3 serious injuries, and inattention/distraction in 34 injuries with 3 serious injuries (NYC Open Data).
Late morning into the evening is dangerous here: the 11 AM hour alone saw 3 deaths; 8–10 AM and 6–9 PM each include fatal hours with heavy injury counts (NYC Open Data). The map repeats the same corridors: Atlantic Avenue shows 2 deaths and 47 injuries; Columbia Street shows 40 injuries and 2 serious injuries (NYC Open Data).
Known fixes, known failures
The playbook is not secret. Daylight corners. Give pedestrians head starts. Harden turns where drivers swing into crosswalks. On truck streets like Columbia and along Atlantic, enforce turns and route heavy vehicles away from walking routes where possible. Target failure‑to‑yield and red‑light running during the peak injury hours listed above. These fit the patterns police already record here (NYC Open Data).
Who moves first
Council Member Shahana K. Hanif is on record backing safer streets, co‑sponsoring a city bill to add 5,000 bike‑parking stations, which calms sidewalks and helps more people ride (NYC Council Legistar). In Albany, State Senator Andrew Gounardes sponsors the Stop Super Speeders Act, S 4045, to require speed‑limiting tech for repeat violators and voted it forward in committee (Open States). Assembly Member Jo Anne Simon co‑sponsors the Assembly companion A 2299, pushing the same lifesaving tool (Open States).
Albany also renewed New York City’s 24‑hour school‑zone speed‑camera program through 2030. That keeps the cameras on and has been credited with cutting dangerous driving at camera sites (Streetsblog NYC; AMNY).
Slow it down, for real
City leaders have the tools to slow the whole system. Advocates are calling for New York City to use Sammy’s Law authority to set a 20 MPH default on residential streets and to pass speed‑limiters for repeat offenders (CrashCount: Take Action; Open States). The bodies on Atlantic and Columbia do not need more studies. They need less speed and fewer second chances.
Act now. Tell your officials to slow our streets and stop repeat speeders. Start here.

Lander Publishes Bus Report Cards Calls For Accountability▸Sep 5 - Comptroller Brad Lander’s bus report cards land hard. Grades are low. The report names failing routes and service collapse. Poor bus service pushes riders toward cars and raises street danger. The transparency could force bus-priority fixes that help pedestrians and cyclists.
"Comptroller Brad Lander is out with his latest bus report cards, and the grades are as low as expected." -- Brad S. Lander
This is a report release, not legislation (no bill number, file number null). Status: released. Committee: N/A. Key date: report published September 5, 2025 and covered by Streetsblog NYC. Matter title: "Friday’s Headlines: D Bus is F’d Edition." Comptroller Brad Lander issued the bus report cards. Streetsblog reporter David Meyer filed the coverage. Brad S. Lander urged bus report card transparency. Safety note: "Publishing poor bus report cards doesn’t change conditions directly, though weak bus service undermines mode shift and can increase car traffic risk. The transparency could, however, spur bus-priority improvements that would benefit pedestrians and cyclists."

Lander Issues Failing Bus Report Card Cites Neutral Safety Effects▸Sep 4 - Brad Lander’s report flunks the city’s bus network. More than half of 332 routes earned a D or worse. Slow, unreliable service strands riders. Without fixes, poor transit can push people into cars and worsen street danger.
"City Comptroller Brad Lander is already doling out failing grades for lackluster bus service in NYC." -- Brad S. Lander
No bill number. This is a Comptroller report published Sept 4, 2025 and not before a Council committee. The matter borrows the AMNY headline: "F for frigging slow! Lander’s bus report card claims dismal service on more than half of bus lines." Comptroller Brad S. Lander issued and backed the scathing grades. No council sponsors or votes are recorded. A report card critiquing bus performance has no immediate safety effect on pedestrians and cyclists. If it spurs bus‑priority upgrades that speed buses and reduce car dependence, safety could improve; without follow‑through, poor service may push riders to driving and worsen street danger.

Bill Int 1386-2025 (status: SPONSORSHIP) was filed 9/4/2025 and appears on the council record 9/10/2025. It is before the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure. The matter is titled "A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York in relation to requiring prompt repair of street furniture." Primary sponsor Shahana K. Hanif introduced the bill. Co-sponsors Julie Menin, Justin L. Brannan and Frank Morano joined. The bill requires the Department to log notices and repair or replace street furniture within three months, or record why not. Requiring timely repair and public tracking modestly improves safety and comfort for pedestrians and cyclists, though impact is limited by the three-month window and exclusion of traffic signals.

Lander Publishes Bus Report Cards Calls For Accountability▸Sep 5 - Comptroller Brad Lander’s bus report cards land hard. Grades are low. The report names failing routes and service collapse.

Lander Issues Failing Bus Report Card Cites Neutral Safety Effects▸Sep 4 - Brad Lander’s report flunks the city’s bus network. More than half of 332 routes earned a D or worse. Slow, unreliable service strands riders. Without fixes, poor transit can push people into cars and worsen street danger.
"City Comptroller Brad Lander is already doling out failing grades for lackluster bus service in NYC." -- Brad S. Lander
No bill number. This is a Comptroller report published Sept 4, 2025 and not before a Council committee. The matter borrows the AMNY headline: "F for frigging slow!

A report card critiquing bus performance has no immediate safety effect on pedestrians and cyclists. If it spurs bus‑priority upgrades that speed buses and reduce car dependence, safety could improve; without follow‑through, poor service may push riders to driving and worsen street danger.

Lander Issues Failing Bus Report Card Cites Neutral Safety Effects▸Sep 4 - Brad Lander’s report flunks the city’s bus network. More than half of 332 routes earned a D or worse. Slow, unreliable service strands riders. Without fixes, poor transit can push people into cars and worsen street danger.
"City Comptroller Brad Lander is already doling out failing grades for lackluster bus service in NYC." -- Brad S. Lander
No bill number. This is a Comptroller report published Sept 4, 2025 and not before a Council committee. The matter borrows the AMNY headline: "F for frigging slow! Lander’s bus report card claims dismal service on more than half of bus lines." Comptroller Brad S. Lander issued and backed the scathing grades. No council sponsors or votes are recorded. A report card critiquing bus performance has no immediate safety effect on pedestrians and cyclists. If it spurs bus‑priority upgrades that speed buses and reduce car dependence, safety could improve; without follow‑through, poor service may push riders to driving and worsen street danger.

No bill number. This is a Comptroller report published Sept 4, 2025 and not before a Council committee. The matter borrows the AMNY headline: "F for frigging slow! Lander’s bus report card claims dismal service on more than half of bus lines." Comptroller Brad S. Lander issued and backed the scathing grades. No council sponsors or votes are recorded. A report card critiquing bus performance has no immediate safety effect on pedestrians and cyclists. If it spurs bus‑priority upgrades that speed buses and reduce car dependence, safety could improve; without follow‑through, poor service may push riders to driving and worsen street danger.

Lander Publishes Bus Report Cards Calls For Accountability▸Sep 5 - Comptroller Brad Lander’s bus report cards land hard. Grades are low. The report names failing routes and service collapse.

Lander Issues Failing Bus Report Card Cites Neutral Safety Effects▸Sep 4 - Brad Lander’s report flunks the city’s bus network. More than half of 332 routes earned a D or worse. Slow, unreliable service strands riders. Without fixes, poor transit can push people into cars and worsen street danger.
"City Comptroller Brad Lander is already doling out failing grades for lackluster bus service in NYC." -- Brad S. Lander
No bill number. This is a Comptroller report published Sept 4, 2025 and not before a Council committee. The matter borrows the AMNY headline: "F for frigging slow!

A report card critiquing bus performance has no immediate safety effect on pedestrians and cyclists. If it spurs bus‑priority upgrades that speed buses and reduce car dependence, safety could improve; without follow‑through, poor service may push riders to driving and worsen street danger.
