Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in District 28?
Twelve Dead, Thousands Hurt—Council Must Choose People Over Cars Now
District 28: Jan 1, 2022 - Aug 4, 2025
The Deaths Keep Coming
In District 28, the numbers do not lie. Twelve people have died on these streets since 2022. More than 3,700 have been injured. Thirty-nine suffered wounds so grave they may never walk the same. The dead are not numbers. They are neighbors, children, elders. Their stories end at the curb, in the crosswalk, on the way home.
Just last winter, a woman was killed crossing 158th Street at 111th Avenue. The driver kept going straight. She never made it to the other side. On Rockaway Boulevard, a 23-year-old man died at the intersection. The car was a BMW. The street was not forgiving. NYC Open Data
The Human Cost
The pain does not fade. “I wish they would never have given him that car. I wish they would never think about giving him that car—because if they didn’t give him that car, my daughter would still be here right now,” said Keisha Francis, whose 14-year-old daughter died in a crash with an unlicensed teen behind the wheel. The driver was sentenced. The parents, too. But the girl is gone.
On Liberty Boulevard, a man was run down in the street. The district attorney did not charge the driver. The only thing left was the body and the silence. “The Queens District Attorney’s Office opted not to charge the driver because he feared for his life when he struck Sonalall,” reported the New York Post.
Leadership: Progress and Gaps
Council Member Adrienne Adams has voted for some measures that help. She backed the law to remove abandoned vehicles within 72 hours—a step to clear sightlines and crosswalks. She voted to decriminalize jaywalking, ending a law that punished the vulnerable instead of the reckless. She supported bills for better pavement markings and more transparency in street safety projects. But the carnage continues. No law has yet slowed the cars or stopped the blood.
What Comes Next
This is not fate. It is policy. Every death is a choice made by those in power. Call Council Member Adrienne Adams. Demand a 20 mph speed limit. Demand real protection for people walking and biking. Do not wait for another name to be added to the list.
