Crashes to know
- Oct 19 · BRONX — A cyclist was badly hurt on Oct 19.
- Oct 19 · E 118 ST — A pedestrian was killed on Oct 19.
- Sep 30 · Meserole & Leonard — A cyclist was fatally struck and died on Sep 30.
City leaders and Albany lawmakers are on the clock. The pace of harm argues for two immediate moves tied to clear levers and the month’s numbers.
- Pass 20 MPH default citywide now to slow streets where 438 crashes produced 13 deaths.
- Adopt Stop Super Speeders (S4045/A2299) statewide so repeat speeders face mandatory speed‑limiting tech.
