Six Dead in CB6—How Many More Before City Hall Acts?
Brooklyn CB6: Jan 1, 2022 - Jun 4, 2025
The Deaths Keep Coming
A woman, 83, crushed by a turning truck on Bond Street. An 18-year-old, dead in the front seat on Atlantic Avenue. A 72-year-old, struck by a taxi at Flatbush and 5th. A man, 38, killed on Hicks Street. In three and a half years, six people have died in Brooklyn CB6. Eighteen more were seriously injured. These are not just numbers. They are mothers, daughters, sons, neighbors. The street does not care if you are young or old. It takes without warning.
The Pattern Is Relentless
1,504 people have been hurt in 3,406 crashes since 2022. Two children were hit by an SUV on Smith Street this May. A cyclist was thrown from his bike after a driver ignored traffic control. A pedestrian was struck by a distracted SUV driver on Hamilton Avenue. The pain spreads. It does not stop at the curb.
Cars and trucks did most of the damage—one death, 61 moderate injuries, three serious injuries. Trucks and buses killed one, left 11 with moderate injuries. Motorcycles, mopeds, bikes: fewer deaths, but the wounds still cut deep. See the data.
Leadership: Progress and Delay
City leaders talk about Vision Zero. They passed Sammy’s Law, giving New York City the power to lower speed limits. But the city has not yet set a 20 mph limit. Speed cameras, proven to save lives, are at risk if Albany does not act. Each day of delay is another day of risk. The city has redesigned intersections, built protected bike lanes, and added pedestrian space. But the deaths keep coming. The work is not done.
What You Can Do
Call your council member. Call the mayor. Demand a 20 mph speed limit. Demand speed cameras stay on. Demand streets that do not kill.
Every day without action is another day someone does not come home. Take action now.
