Forest Avenue keeps taking. Staten Island CB1 keeps bleeding.
Staten Island CB1: Jan 1, 2022 - Sep 5, 2025
Just after 8 PM on Aug 29, 2025, on St Marys Ave, a 2‑year‑old on foot was struck by a 2017 Honda sedan. He survived with a bruised leg, awake at the scene. NYC Open Data
This Week
- Aug 29 — A driver injured a pedestrian in Staten Island CB1. NYC Open Data
- Aug 29 — An unlicensed BMW driver hit a parked Chevy on Richmond Ave at Vedder Ave; the 33‑year‑old BMW driver was hurt. NYC Open Data
- Aug 23 — At Brook St and Westervelt Ave, a sedan collided with an 11‑year‑old on a bike; the child was ejected and injured. NYC Open Data
- Aug 23 — A 26‑year‑old pedestrian was hit near Richmond Ter; the driver was listed as inattentive. NYC Open Data
The Pattern Is Written In Blood
Since Jan 1, 2022, Staten Island Community Board 1 has seen 18 people killed and 2,902 injured in 5,764 crashes. NYC Open Data
Pedestrians bear the brunt: 8 killed and 539 injured. People on bikes: 1 killed and 146 injured. Occupants inside cars: 8 killed and 2,164 injured. NYC Open Data
The danger clusters on known corridors. Forest Avenue and Jewett Avenue each saw two deaths in this period. Bay St, Clove Rd, and Victory Blvd add dozens more injuries. NYC Open Data
Failing To Yield, Turning Into Flesh
Failure to yield shows up again and again in pedestrian harm here, including a fatal left‑turn on Forest Ave at Raymond Pl that killed a 68‑year‑old in a crosswalk on Jan 6, 2025. NYC Open Data
Drivers blowing past signals also killed and maimed; “disregarded traffic control” is tied to multiple deaths in the local record. NYC Open Data
On Hylan Boulevard, even the signs sow confusion. Staten Island Borough President Vito Fossella put it plainly about botched bus‑lane hours: “That’s one accident every four days where somebody perhaps unwittingly thinks they must turn from the middle lane in order to make a right‑hand turn.” amNY
Where It Breaks, How To Fix It
- Daylight the corners on Forest Ave and Jewett Ave. Protect the crosswalks with concrete. Harden the turns so drivers must slow. NYC Open Data
- Put clear, uniform bus‑lane hours on Hylan and enforce right‑turns from the curb to stop middle‑lane hook crashes. amNY
- Target failure‑to‑yield at signalized crossings with leading pedestrian intervals and enforcement at known hot corners. NYC Open Data
Power Can Change The Math
Albany advanced a tool to curb repeat dangerous driving. The Senate bill to require intelligent speed assistance for repeated speed violators moved this session; on June 12, 2025, State Senator Andrew Lanza (SD 24) voted no. Open States
Another lever is speed itself. New Yorkers have the means to press for lower default speeds citywide and to rein in repeat speeders. The steps are laid out here. /take_action/
Local officials know the stakes. Assembly Member Charles Fall (AD 61) voted yes to extend school speed zones this June. Open States
Forest Ave will still be there tomorrow. So will the crosswalk at Raymond Pl. The child on St Marys Ave survived. The next one might not. Take the step that is in front of you. /take_action/
