Title: Nine Crashes Rack Senate 27 Streets
9 crashes in seven days in Senate 27. Sirens and spilled bikes. A midnight pickup knocked down an e‑bike rider.
According to CrashCountNYC analysis of NYPD crash reports 9 crashes occurred in Senate District 27 between 2025-10-03 and 2025-10-10. The window produced 1 serious injury and 9 moderate injuries, triggering a heightened risk alert for this seven day surge. On 2025-10-09 a pickup struck an e‑bike rider near 552 Broadway at midnight leaving the rider conscious with back abrasions, with police recording driver inattention and unsafe lane changing (NYPD crash data). This cluster shows repeated driver inattention and improper lane use across crosswalks and bike lanes. State Senator Kavanagh is on the hook now. Demand clear fixes and fast action.
- Pass a 20 MPH local law to cut speeds on high injury corridors now and protect vulnerable road users.
- Support the Stop Super Speeders Act to force speed limiting tech for the highest risk drivers and drivers with repeat dangerous behavior.

Subject: Senate District 27 (Manhattan) — 9 crashes in 7 days, people walking and biking hurt
Dear Brian Kavanagh,
Senator Brian Kavanagh — between 2025-10-03 and 2025-10-10 there were **9 crashes** in District 27, a heightened-risk window that left **1 person seriously injured** and **9 people with moderate injuries**. This is a clear pattern of streets that are currently unsafe for people walking and biking.
The worst recent crash happened on **2025-10-09 near 552 Broadway**: a pickup hit an e-bike rider at midnight. Police listed driver inattention, improper lane use, and unsafe lane changing. Other incidents in the week hit people on Broadway, Bowery, Frankfort St (by the FDR exit), East Houston, Water St/Fulton, MacDougal/W Houston, and E 13th — many with driver inattention or improper lane use recorded.
You’ve voted for measures like extending school speed zones and adding reckless-driving awareness to licensing. Use that record to fix these streets now. You can lower speeds, fund protected bike lanes and pedestrian safety signals, and direct targeted enforcement where drivers repeatedly misuse lanes.
Please take these steps in District 27 this month:
1. Direct DOT to install or pilot physical lane protections and pedestrian signal timing at Broadway/Bowery/Frankfort corridors.
2. Push for a district speed review and a 20 MPH rollout on streets with repeated injuries.
3. Request focused enforcement and a reckless-driving awareness campaign for drivers near high‑injury intersections.
We’re asking you to act immediately to prevent more people from being hurt. We’ll be watching District 27’s crash totals and the results of any steps you request.
Crash window: 10/3–10/10
Totals in cluster: 9 crashes, 1 serious injuries, 0 deaths.
