Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in CB 410?

Preventable Speeding in CB 410 School Zones

(since 2022)
Liberty Avenue, a body, and the bill that waits

Liberty Avenue, a body, and the bill that waits

Queens CB10: Jan 1, 2022 - Sep 25, 2025

Saturday afternoon at Liberty Avenue by the Van Wyck, a 51-year-old woman walking was hit and killed in the intersection, police data show (NYC Open Data).

She is one of 23 people killed on these Queens CB10 streets since 2022, alongside 3,978 injuries in 5,842 crashes (NYC Open Data). In 2025 to date, 9 people have died here, compared to 2 by this point last year (NYC Open Data).

This Week

  • Sept 20: A woman walking was killed at Liberty Avenue and the Van Wyck service road, in a chain of left-turning sedans at the intersection (NYC Open Data).
  • Aug 27: A 10-year-old girl crossing with the signal at Rockaway Blvd and 97 St was hit and seriously hurt; police cited driver inexperience and following too closely (NYC Open Data).

Corners that do not forgive

Belt Parkway is the top hot spot here, with 5 deaths and 511 injuries. North Conduit Avenue follows, with 2 deaths and 255 injuries. Liberty Avenue is on that list too (NYC Open Data). Nights cut deepest: multiple deaths stack at 8 PM, 10 PM, and 11 PM in this district’s crash log (NYC Open Data).

Police list named driver behaviors again and again: following too closely, driver inexperience, aggressive driving, backing unsafely, alcohol involvement (NYC Open Data). On Lefferts Boulevard, a 73-year-old woman crossing in a marked crosswalk died when a bus driver turned left and failed to yield, the report says (NYC Open Data).

A hit-and-run on the Nassau Expressway

Days before the Liberty Avenue death, prosecutors described another case on the Nassau Expressway in South Ozone Park: “The 25-year-old man who fatally hit a safety flag worker was driving on a license that had been suspended seven times,” the Queens DA’s office said (Gothamist). A woman doing traffic control died there, according to police reports cited in local coverage (amNY).

We know what would help at the corner

Blind corners kill. A City Council bill, Intro 1138, would ban parking within 20 feet of crosswalks and add hardened daylighting at 1,000 corners a year, a move with majority support according to council coverage (Streetsblog NYC). Speaker Adrienne Adams has not brought it to a vote. Her office says, “The safety of pedestrians and all street users remains a top priority… [the bill] is going through the council’s legislative process, which is deliberative and allows for thorough public engagement and input” (AMNY).

Local fixes are straightforward: daylight the corners on Liberty Avenue and North Conduit Avenue; add leading pedestrian intervals; harden left turns at high-injury intersections; target evening enforcement where deaths spike. The crash log points to where and when.

Stop the worst speeders

Albany moved on repeat reckless driving. The State Senate advanced the Stop Super Speeders Act (S4045) to require intelligent speed assistance for drivers with patterns of violations (Open States). Our State Senator James Sanders voted yes in committee (Open States).

But protection is uneven. The Assembly recently voted on extending school speed zones; local Assembly Member Stacey Pheffer Amato voted no (Streetsblog NYC).

The work that cannot wait

A woman died crossing Liberty Avenue. Another woman died working traffic on the Nassau Expressway. The map shows the rest.

Lower speeds. Clear the corners. Rein in repeat speeders. If you want those changes on your block, take one step now: push your leaders to act.
