Mosholu Parkway, 2 AM
District 11: Jan 1, 2022 - Sep 18, 2025
Just after 2 AM on Sep 7, 2025, a driver in a 2024 Toyota going straight hit a 30-year-old man on Mosholu Parkway; police recorded driver inattention and he died at the scene (NYC Open Data; ABC7).
He was one of 21 people killed and 3,549 injured on District 11 streets since 2022 (NYC Open Data). The file holds 6,138 crashes and 43 serious injuries in that span. The numbers do not blink.
“If you don’t want a speeding ticket, don’t speed,” Council Member Eric Dinowitz said when the Council expanded 24/7 speed cameras (Streetsblog NYC).
This Week
- Sep 7: A driver going straight struck and killed a man on Mosholu Parkway; police cited driver inattention (NYC Open Data).
- Aug 11: Two people riding mopeds were ejected and killed in a multi-vehicle crash on Bronx River Parkway (NYC Open Data).
Where it keeps happening
Major Deegan Expressway leads this district’s toll with 3 deaths and 369 injuries. Broadway has 3 deaths and 99 injuries. Mosholu Parkway has 2 deaths and 125 injuries. These are not outliers; they are addresses (NYC Open Data).
Crashes do not sleep. Fatalities repeat in the late-night and pre-dawn hours, from midnight through 5 AM (NYC Open Data). Police records name inattention/distraction, failure to yield, and unsafe speed among the factors behind the hurt here (NYC Open Data).
What would make it stop
- Daylight corners and harden left turns at Broadway and along Mosholu to cut blind hits in the crosswalk.
- Add leading pedestrian intervals and reduce turning speeds at the Deegan service roads and feeder streets.
- Calm the long straights on Mosholu Parkway with narrower lanes and enforced limits.
These are basic tools. They meet the record on these corridors.
Who must move
Council Member Eric Dinowitz has voted for street safety measures and backed 24/7 school‑zone cameras (Streetsblog NYC). Assembly Member John Zaccaro and Senator Robert Jackson represent this area at the state level. A state bill to curb repeat speeders and require speed limiters has been put forward; New Yorkers are pushing for it and for a lower default city speed limit. The concrete asks are collected here.
The next step
Lower the speed that kills. Stop the repeat offenders. Call your officials and press for the changes spelled out here.
