The toll does not stop

Since Jan 1, 2022, in Brooklyn Community Board 10, 23 people have been killed and 2,592 injured in traffic crashes. Police recorded 25 serious injuries. City dataset.

People walking bear a heavy share: 10 killed and 427 injured. People on bikes: 1 killed and 245 injured. City dataset.

This year, reported deaths stand at 1 in this community, down from 8 at this point last year; injuries are up. City dataset.

Corners that keep breaking people

Police list distraction, failure to yield, and ignoring signals in crash records across these streets. In last week’s four cases, officers logged distraction twice and failure to yield twice. City dataset.

Hot spots include Shore Road, 7 Avenue, 4 Avenue, and Bay Ridge Parkway. These corridors show the highest mix of deaths and injuries in this area. City dataset.

Basic fixes fit the pattern: protected turns and daylighting where drivers keep cutting corners; hardened lefts at Bay Ridge Parkway and 6 Avenue; truck-turn controls and concrete at 65 Street and 6 Avenue; targeted enforcement for failure to yield on 4 Avenue and 13 Avenue. These measures match the crash types recorded. City dataset.

The levers on the table

The city’s 24/7 school-zone speed cameras are renewed through 2030. “Speed cameras save lives and keep New Yorkers safe,” the governor said when the law was signed. Streetsblog.

In Albany, the Stop Super Speeders Act would require intelligent speed assistance for drivers with repeated violations. The bill is S4045; State Sen. Andrew Gounardes sponsors it and voted yes in committee. Bill page.

In City Hall, Council Member Justin L. Brannan introduced Int 1394 to put a stop sign or light at every crosswalk. The bill is live in the Council’s system. Legistar. He also backed deadlines for school-area devices (Int 1353). Council file.

The Assembly Member for this area, Alec Brook-Krasny, voted no on the 2025 speed camera extension (S8344). Bill file. Gounardes sponsored that extension and voted yes. AMNY.

Slow it down here, for good

  • Lower default speeds citywide under Sammy’s Law authority. Expand 20 MPH zones on corridors with repeated failure-to-yield crashes.
  • Pass S4045 and fit repeat offenders’ cars with speed limiters that keep them under the limit.
  • Install hardened turns, LPIs, and daylighting at the listed hot spots, then enforce failure to yield where the records show it.

One week. Four people hit. It does not have to happen again. Take one step today: push your officials to act.
