Midnight on the LIE, and the Count Keeps Climbing
District 24: Jan 1, 2022 - Oct 5, 2025
Just after midnight on the Long Island Expressway in Corona, a 30-year-old on a motorcycle was hit and killed in a chain of crashes. Police records show multiple vehicles in the westbound lane; he died at the scene (NYC Open Data, Gothamist).
He was one of at least 18 people killed here since 2022. Another 3,959 were hurt in that same span (NYC Open Data). In the past month, the LIE took another life and reminded this district what late night looks like on our highways (NYC Open Data).
Where the street turns cruel
The worst pain clusters on the highways that cut through this district: the Grand Central Parkway, the Long Island Expressway, and the Van Wyck Expressway. Those corridors alone account for repeated deaths and hundreds of injuries since 2022, with the LIE linked to five deaths in this period (NYC Open Data).
The danger is not just on the highways. Hillside Avenue and 164 Street show the same pattern: turning cars, people on foot or on bikes, and a hard stop that doesn’t end (NYC Open Data).
Night belongs to the quick and the dead
The clock matters. Deaths peak around midnight in this district. Overnight hours keep stacking injuries too (NYC Open Data).
Police reports list inattention and failure to yield among the recorded causes. The forms are plain. The outcomes are not (NYC Open Data).
People outside the car take the brunt. Since 2022, drivers have killed five people walking and one person on a bike in Council District 24. Hundreds more were injured while walking or riding (NYC Open Data).
The paper trail at City Hall
Council Member James F. Gennaro backed some basics. He co-sponsored a law forcing DOT to track and post progress on the Streets Master Plan (Int 1105-2024) and another that speeds up repainting lines after repaving (Int 1160-2025). He also voted to clear derelict cars that block sightlines and crosswalks (Int 0857-2024).
But the bodies keep coming. In the last 12 months alone, five people were killed and 1,135 were injured on these streets (NYC Open Data).
Fix the places we already know
Start where the harm is heaviest. Harden turns and add daylighting at Hillside Avenue and 164 Street. Give people crossing time with leading pedestrian intervals. On the highways that frame this district, use targeted night enforcement and proven traffic-calming at ramps and service roads. These are the low steps that keep bones intact. The city knows how to do them (NYC Open Data).
Slow the whole city, stop the worst repeat offenders
Two citywide moves would cut risk on every block and every ramp: a lower default speed limit and speed limiters for the small group of drivers who rack up camera violations. Both are on the table now. Our detailed case and the bill numbers are laid out here.
Assembly Member Nily Rozic and State Senator Toby Stavisky represent most of this district. Council Member Gennaro is the local vote at City Hall. The record shows some motion. The toll says it is not enough.
One man died on the LIE in the dark. The next one is on the calendar unless someone moves. Take one step today: tell City Hall and Albany to act now.

Woman Killed In Queens Parkway Crash▸Feb 8 - A car struck an underpass on Belt Parkway. Metal twisted. A woman, 27, died at the hospital. A man survived. Police do not know who drove. The wreck left questions. The system failed to protect its passengers.
According to NY Daily News (published February 8, 2025), a single-car crash on Queens’ Belt Parkway killed a 27-year-old woman and injured a 30-year-old man. The white Toyota sedan hit an underpass near 225th Street around 3:50 a.m. Both occupants were found outside the wreck when police arrived. Investigators are unsure who was driving at the time of impact: 'Since both occupants were out of the car at the time of the crash, investigators haven't figured out who was driving, police said.' The woman died at Long Island Jewish Hospital-Valley Stream; the man was expected to survive. The article highlights ongoing uncertainty about driver identity and underscores the persistent risks on city highways, especially where loss of vehicle control leads to deadly outcomes. The investigation continues.

Int 1160-2025, now enacted by the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, forces the Department of Transportation to install pavement markings or temporary lines within five business days after any street resurfacing. The bill, sponsored by Farah N. Louis (primary) and co-sponsored by Brannan, Schulman, Banks, Farías, Carr, Ariola, and others, passed on March 15, 2025. The law demands annual reporting on compliance and reasons for any delay. The matter title reads: 'A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to installing pavement markings.' Quick, visible lines cut confusion and protect people crossing or riding. The law took effect immediately.
