Queens CB6: Crosswalks, sirens, and the bill that could slow it down
Queens CB6: Jan 1, 2022 - Oct 12, 2025
On Oct 5, at Yellowstone Boulevard and Austin Street, a driver in a Hyundai sedan hit a man on an e‑bike. Police recorded an injury crash. NYC Open Data
This Week
- Oct 3 at 69th Road and Gerard Place, a driver turning right hit a 69‑year‑old woman in the crosswalk; police recorded unsafe speed and distraction by the driver. NYC Open Data
- Sep 29 at 108 Street and 63rd Road, two people on a bike were hurt after colliding with a parked SUV. NYC Open Data
The toll keeps climbing here
Since Jan 1, 2022, in Queens CB6, there have been 3,268 crashes, leaving 6 people dead and 1,582 injured. NYC Open Data
Pedestrians account for 2 of the deaths and 332 injuries; people on bikes for 1 death and 127 injuries. Vehicle occupants make up the rest. NYC Open Data
Crashes cluster on the expressways and arterials that cut through the district. The Long Island Expressway is the top hotspot, with 2 deaths and 168 injuries tied to crashes in the area. Queens Boulevard is close behind, with 124 injuries. NYC Open Data
Where and when it hurts
Police records show injuries stack up through the midday and into the evening, peaking from about noon through 7 PM. The 8 AM hour is high as well. NYC Open Data
Named driver errors recur: failure to yield at turns, drivers ignoring signals, improper passing, and distraction behind the wheel. In the Oct 3 case on 69th Road, police recorded both unsafe speed and driver inattention. NYC Open Data
On the LIE in Queens, a fatal case showed how exposure multiplies risk: “The 30‑year‑old rider was struck by at least three drivers in Queens.” Gothamist
Fix the corners, slow the turns
At 108 Street and across Queens Boulevard, left turns keep putting people in the hospital. Proven countermeasures are on the shelf: daylighting, hardened centerlines, and leading pedestrian intervals at the worst intersections. Targeted enforcement for failure to yield during peak hours can backstop the design. NYC Open Data
End the repeat speeding that drives the harm
This district’s lawmakers have backed tools to rein in chronic speeders. In the Senate, Joe Addabbo voted yes in committee on S 4045, the bill that would require intelligent speed assistance for repeat offenders. Andrew Hevesi co‑sponsors the Assembly versions (A 7979 and A 2299). The city’s 24‑hour school‑zone speed cameras were renewed through 2030 with yes votes from Addabbo and Hevesi on S 8344. Open States Open States
Lower speeds save lives. The city now has the power to lower limits under Sammy’s Law. The bill to force chronic speeders to slow down has momentum in Albany. Both levers are on the table.
The next step is not abstract
Queens Boulevard. Yellowstone at Austin. The LIE. The pattern is written in police forms and hospital charts. Slow the default speed. Fit repeat offenders’ cars with limiters. Then harden the turns where people cross.
One ask, today: tell City Hall and Albany to use the tools they already have. Act at our Take Action page.

Katz Calls Prosecution Safety-Boosting Step Toward Accountability▸Sep 21 - A driver was arraigned on manslaughter and assault charges after a hit-and-run killed an on-duty construction flag worker on the Nassau Expressway. Prosecutors say the case seeks accountability for dangerous driving; the worker did not survive.
"A driver who allegedly ran down a safety flag worker at a construction site in Queens last week, killing her, was arraigned on manslaughter and a list of other charges, Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz announced on Sunday." -- Melinda R. Katz
This is not a council bill. Matter: "Queens DA: Motorist arraigned after hit-and-run collision that left on-duty construction worker dead on Nassau Expressway." Event date: 2025-09-21. Status: defendant Daveanand Budhai arraigned on second-degree manslaughter and second-degree assault charges after the fatal collision. Queens District Attorney Melinda R. Katz announced the indictment and pushed for prosecution. No council committee or councilmember sponsorship applies; Barbara Russo-Lennon is listed as the reporting source. Safety impact: prosecutors say accountability can deter dangerous driving — "Prosecuting a hit-and-run driver signals accountability for dangerous driving, which can deter similar behavior and support a culture of safety for vulnerable road users. However, without complementary infrastructure or systemic changes, the impact is likely modest."

"A driver who allegedly ran down a safety flag worker at a construction site in Queens last week, killing her, was arraigned on manslaughter and a list of other charges, Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz announced on Sunday." -- Melinda R. Katz
This is not a council bill. Matter: "Queens DA: Motorist arraigned after hit-and-run collision that left on-duty construction worker dead on Nassau Expressway." Event date: 2025-09-21. Status: defendant Daveanand Budhai arraigned on second-degree manslaughter and second-degree assault charges after the fatal collision. Queens District Attorney Melinda R. Katz announced the indictment and pushed for prosecution. No council committee or councilmember sponsorship applies; Barbara Russo-Lennon is listed as the reporting source. Safety impact: prosecutors say accountability can deter dangerous driving — "Prosecuting a hit-and-run driver signals accountability for dangerous driving, which can deter similar behavior and support a culture of safety for vulnerable road users. However, without complementary infrastructure or systemic changes, the impact is likely modest."
