Title: Deadly week on District 25 streets
Ten crashes in a week in District 25. One neighbor killed. Sirens every 17 hours. Streets read like a gauntlet until leaders act.
In seven days, Sep 29–Oct 6, District 25 saw 10 crashes, with one person killed and one seriously hurt—sirens roughly every 17 hours. That pace is obscene for a few square miles.
Oct 6 on Flushing near N. Elliott, an e‑bike operator struck a 60‑year‑old woman; she died and two riders were hurt. A pickup turning left at Marcus Garvey and Halsey hit a 17‑year‑old; police logged driver inattention. Oct 3, Bedford at Lafayette, a Chevy SUV hit a cyclist and broke his leg; at Herkimer and Sackman, a GMC SUV hit a 76‑year‑old in a marked crosswalk.
This lands on Albany. State Senator Brisport co‑sponsors the tools; the district needs them passed now. Pass the Stop Super Speeders Act and authorize bike‑lane camera enforcement so these blocks stop bleeding.

Brooklyn SD25: 10 crashes in 7 days (9/29–10/6). Fatal crash cluster—1 killed, 1 seriously hurt. Pickup turned left at Marcus Garvey & Halsey, hit a 17‑year‑old. Police cite inattention. On Flushing, an e‑bike operator hit and killed a 60‑year‑old woman. @JabariBrisport, move the fixes: Pass Stop Super Speeders (S4045). Pass bike‑lane cameras (S5008). Do it now to stop the next call.

Subject: Senate 25: 10 crashes in 7 days — 1 person killed on Flushing Ave
Dear Jabari Brisport,
State Senator Brisport, from 9/29 to 10/6 — just 7 days — Senate District 25 saw **10 crashes**, with **1 person killed** and **2 seriously hurt**. That’s a clear pattern your constituents feel on the sidewalk and in the bike lane.
The worst was on **10/06 on Flushing Ave near N. Elliott**: an e‑bike driver hit a 60‑year‑old woman. She died; two riders were injured. That same day, a pickup driver turned left at **Marcus Garvey Blvd & Halsey St** and hit a **17‑year‑old** walking. Police repeatedly noted driver inattention and failure to yield across this window — on **Herkimer St at Sackman**, **Tompkins & Jefferson**, **Gates at Downing**, and **Rockaway Ave at Eastern Pkwy** — plus a serious bike crash at **Bedford & Lafayette**.
You’ve backed safety before — you co‑sponsor **S4045** (intelligent speed assistance for habitual speeders) and **S5008** (bike‑lane camera enforcement) and voted to extend school speed zones. This is the week to turn support into outcomes.
Here’s what you can do now:
- Press for a floor vote and passage of **S4045** this session to rein in repeat speeders.
- Move **S5008** so cameras can keep bike lanes clear where people were hit this week: Flushing, Bedford, Marcus Garvey, Rockaway.
- Publicly back NYC’s use of its authority to lower speeds toward 20 MPH on these corridors and call for focused enforcement at the intersections named above.
People here are doing everything right — walking with the light, biking in the lane — and still getting hit. You can lower speeds, clear bike lanes, and stop repeat offenders. Please act this week and report back on steps taken.
We’ll keep watching the crash totals in Senate 25 and sharing updates with neighbors.
