Roosevelt and 43rd: another body in the street, more numbers to count

Roosevelt and 43rd: another body in the street, more numbers to count

Queens CB4: Jan 1, 2022 - Oct 11, 2025

Just before 4 PM on Oct 1, a driver in a sedan hit a 16-year-old walking at 43rd Avenue near 111th Street. She survived with injuries NYC Open Data.

Since 2022 in Queens Community Board 4, 20 people have been killed and 2,603 injured in crashes NYC Open Data. Pedestrians bear the brunt: 11 killed and 696 injured in that span NYC Open Data.

This Month

  • At 103rd Street and Roosevelt Avenue around 8 AM on Oct 1, a teen on a motorcycle and a taxi collided; a 60-year-old woman walking with the signal was hurt NYC Open Data.
  • Just after 4 AM on Sep 13, the driver of an SUV killed a 16-year-old girl near Roosevelt Avenue and Benham Street NYC Open Data.

Where the street breaks

Roosevelt Avenue keeps showing up in the logs, along with the Long Island Expressway and 57th Avenue NYC Open Data. The deadliest hours here cluster around 4 AM and 8 AM NYC Open Data.

Police reports in this district list deaths tied to drivers who ignored traffic controls, drove aggressively, or mixed alcohol into the act NYC Open Data. Failure to yield keeps hurting people, especially those on foot NYC Open Data.

The count does not slow

Year to date, five people have been killed here, the same as last year by this point. Injuries fell to 482 from 571, and reported crashes to 815 from 1,104, but the bodies are still there NYC Open Data.

A small number of places account for a large share of pain. Hardened turns, daylighting, and leading walk signals at Roosevelt and 57th are not theory; they are tools. Night traffic kills too, so target the 3–5 AM hours with design and enforcement where the logs say people die NYC Open Data.

Who answers for this

This board sits under Council Member Shekar Krishnan, Assembly Member Catalina Cruz, and State Senator Jessica Ramos. Krishnan said, “The infrastructure projects, the transportation and green space projects, need to be progressing at a much much faster rate” Streetsblog.

Albany renewed 24‑hour school‑zone speed cameras. Cruz voted yes on that extension (S 8344) Open States. The Senate is also moving the Stop Super Speeders Act (S 4045). Ramos co‑sponsors it and voted yes in committee on May 20, 2025 Open States.

What must move now

  • On Roosevelt and other repeat sites: daylight corners, harden turns, give people on foot the first move. Aim upgrades at the hours when deaths stack up NYC Open Data.
  • Citywide: lower the default speed where you can. The tools exist. Use them.
  • In Albany: pass the speed‑limiter bill that targets repeat offenders, S 4045 Open States.

The girl on 43rd Avenue lived. Others did not. Demand the fixes here.
