Notes: Police classification can change during investigations. Small categories may have year-to-year variance.
CloseAbout these numbers
These totals count vehicles with at least the shown number of camera‑issued speeding violations (school‑zone speed cameras) in any rolling 12‑month window in this district. Totals are summed from 2022 to the present for this geography.
- ≥ 6 (6+): advocates’ standard for repeat speeding offenders who should face escalating consequences.
- ≥ 16 (16+): threshold in the current edited bill awaiting State Senate action.
About this list
This ranks vehicles by the number of NYC school‑zone speed‑camera violations they received in the last 12 months anywhere in the city. The smaller note shows how many times the same plate was caught in this area in the last 90 days.
Camera violations are issued by NYC DOT’s program. Counts reflect issued tickets and may omit dismissed or pending cases. Plate text is shown verbatim as recorded.
CloseYorkville’s kill zone: four deaths, hundreds hurt, and silence at the corners
Upper East Side-Yorkville: Jan 1, 2022 - Aug 25, 2025
Two men, a woman, and a cyclist are gone. Since 2022, this small part of Manhattan has logged 4 deaths and 463 injuries in crashes. The toll sits in the open data. No spin. Just names reduced to counts. NYC Open Data
- A 47‑year‑old man died at 2nd Ave and East 82nd in 2023. A box truck was going straight. The record says the pedestrian was at the intersection. NYC Open Data
- A 30‑year‑old woman was killed at York Ave and East 87th in 2024. Multiple vehicles appear in the report. She died at the corner. NYC Open Data
- A 28‑year‑old cyclist died on 2nd Ave in 2022. The record lists a bike going straight. He never made it home. NYC Open Data
- In 2025, a 55‑year‑old driver lost consciousness at East 83rd and York and died. Single vehicle. The street stayed the same. NYC Open Data
FDR Drive leads the injury list here. So does 2nd Avenue. East 96th and 1st Avenue trail behind. These are the repeat scenes. NYC Open Data
Where the bodies fall
Crash timing tells another story. Injuries spike at 3 p.m., 6 p.m., 6 a.m., noon, and into the night. Deaths hit at midnight, 5 a.m., 6 p.m., and 9 p.m. The clock keeps its own ledger. NYC Open Data
Pedestrians took the hardest blows: 2 deaths and 109 injuries. Cyclists: 1 death and 99 injuries. Car and truck occupants: 1 death and 236 injuries. Heavy boxes on wheels kill and maim, but so do sedans and SUVs. NYC Open Data
On causes, the city’s roll‑up is blunt: “other” leads the death count. Disregarded signals show up in one death. Distraction. Failure to yield. The words are dry until you stand in the crosswalk. NYC Open Data
Corners that don’t forgive
Name the hot zones. FDR Drive. 2nd Avenue. East 96th Street. 1st Avenue. City data flags them for repeated harm. Day after day. NYC Open Data
At 2nd Avenue and East 82nd, a truck going straight ended a man’s life. At York and East 87th, a woman died at the intersection. On 2nd Avenue in 2022, a cyclist died in a straight‑line crash. The geometry stays the same. The outcomes don’t. NYC Open Data
Simple fixes exist. Daylight the corners. Harden the turns. Give pedestrians a head start at the light. Protect the bike lane where riders actually fall. Target the repeat hours on the same blocks. The patterns are not a mystery. NYC Open Data
Citywide choices, local blood
Albany gave New York City the power to drop speeds on local streets. The city has not pulled the lever for a default 20. The law is there. The deaths continue. CrashCount: Take Action
The state also moved a bill to clamp the worst repeat speeders with speed‑limiting tech. In June, Senators Liz Krueger and José Serrano backed S 4045 in committee. The bill would force speed limiters on drivers who rack up violations. Open States
After two people were killed at Bowery and Canal by a car doing over 100 mph, the city said it would fortify the intersection and plan a broader redesign. “We are taking immediate steps to fortify this intersection,” said the transportation commissioner. Advocates answered that most of Canal “will remain deadly.” The pattern is familiar. Act after the funerals. Gothamist
What you can do now
- Lower the speed: Demand a citywide 20 mph default. Use the power already granted. CrashCount: Take Action
- Stop repeat offenders: Tell your legislators to pass the speed‑limiter bill for habitual violators. Open States
One corner. One fix. One less family getting the call.

Julie Menin Backs Safety-Boosting Street Furniture Repair Law▸Sep 10 - Int 1386 forces a public log and a three-month deadline to fix missing or damaged street furniture. It aims to restore bike racks, bollards and shelters and cut sidewalk hazards — but the three-month window is slow and excludes signals.
Bill Int 1386-2025 is at City Council vote stage (COUNCIL_VOTE), with a council action scheduled on 2025-09-10; vote results are not listed. Committee: Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure. The matter is titled: "A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York in relation to requiring prompt repair of street furniture." Introduced and backed by Council Member Julie Menin, the bill mandates a public log, an annual report, and requires the commissioner to repair or replace street furniture within three months of notice; contracts must enforce that three-month deadline. Requiring timely repair and public tracking modestly improves safety by keeping bike racks, bollards, shelters, and wayfinding functional and reducing sidewalk hazards/obstructions, though the three-month window is slow and it excludes signals and regulatory signs.

Menin co-sponsors street furniture repair mandate, modestly boosts walking-cycling safety▸Sep 10 - Int 1386 requires repair or replacement of damaged street furniture within three months and public tracking. It aims to clear bike-rack, bench and shelter obstructions and modestly improve safety for walkers and cyclists.
Int 1386-2025 is at SPONSORSHIP and was referred to the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure. Filed as LS #17596 on 9/4/2025 and recorded 9/10/2025, the bill is titled: "A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York in relation to requiring prompt repair of street furniture." Council Member Julie Menin sponsors the measure. The law would require repair or replacement within three months, annual public reporting, and contract clauses to force timely work. Safety analysts note that timely repair and public tracking of street furniture reduces hazards and supports walking and cycling, though the benefit is modest given the three-month window and exclusion of signals and signs.

Julie Menin Backs Safety-Boosting Street Furniture Repair Law▸Sep 10 - Int 1386 forces a public log and a three-month deadline to fix missing or damaged street furniture. It aims to restore bike racks, bollards and shelters and cut sidewalk hazards — but the three-month window is slow and excludes signals.
Bill Int 1386-2025 is at City Council vote stage (COUNCIL_VOTE), with a council action scheduled on 2025-09-10; vote results are not listed. Committee: Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure. The matter is titled: "A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York in relation to requiring prompt repair of street furniture." Introduced and backed by Council Member Julie Menin, the bill mandates a public log, an annual report, and requires the commissioner to repair or replace street furniture within three months of notice; contracts must enforce that three-month deadline. Requiring timely repair and public tracking modestly improves safety by keeping bike racks, bollards, shelters, and wayfinding functional and reducing sidewalk hazards/obstructions, though the three-month window is slow and it excludes signals and regulatory signs.

Julie Menin Backs Safety-Boosting Street Furniture Repair Law▸Sep 10 - Int 1386 forces a public log and a three-month deadline to fix missing or damaged street furniture. It aims to restore bike racks, bollards and shelters and cut sidewalk hazards — but the three-month window is slow and excludes signals.
Bill Int 1386-2025 is at City Council vote stage (COUNCIL_VOTE), with a council action scheduled on 2025-09-10; vote results are not listed. Committee: Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure. The matter is titled: "A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York in relation to requiring prompt repair of street furniture." Introduced and backed by Council Member Julie Menin, the bill mandates a public log, an annual report, and requires the commissioner to repair or replace street furniture within three months of notice; contracts must enforce that three-month deadline. Requiring timely repair and public tracking modestly improves safety by keeping bike racks, bollards, shelters, and wayfinding functional and reducing sidewalk hazards/obstructions, though the three-month window is slow and it excludes signals and regulatory signs.

Sep 10 - Int 1386 forces a public log and a three-month deadline to fix missing or damaged street furniture. It aims to restore bike racks, bollards and shelters and cut sidewalk hazards — but the three-month window is slow and excludes signals.
Bill Int 1386-2025 is at City Council vote stage (COUNCIL_VOTE), with a council action scheduled on 2025-09-10; vote results are not listed. Committee: Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure. The matter is titled: "A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York in relation to requiring prompt repair of street furniture." Introduced and backed by Council Member Julie Menin, the bill mandates a public log, an annual report, and requires the commissioner to repair or replace street furniture within three months of notice; contracts must enforce that three-month deadline. Requiring timely repair and public tracking modestly improves safety by keeping bike racks, bollards, shelters, and wayfinding functional and reducing sidewalk hazards/obstructions, though the three-month window is slow and it excludes signals and regulatory signs.

Menin co-sponsors street furniture repair mandate, modestly boosts walking-cycling safety▸Sep 10 - Int 1386 requires repair or replacement of damaged street furniture within three months and public tracking. It aims to clear bike-rack, bench and shelter obstructions and modestly improve safety for walkers and cyclists.
Int 1386-2025 is at SPONSORSHIP and was referred to the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure. Filed as LS #17596 on 9/4/2025 and recorded 9/10/2025, the bill is titled: "A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York in relation to requiring prompt repair of street furniture." Council Member Julie Menin sponsors the measure. The law would require repair or replacement within three months, annual public reporting, and contract clauses to force timely work. Safety analysts note that timely repair and public tracking of street furniture reduces hazards and supports walking and cycling, though the benefit is modest given the three-month window and exclusion of signals and signs.

Sep 10 - Int. 1386 forces agencies to fix or replace broken street furniture within three months and publish repair logs. It restores bike racks, bus shelters and bollards that shield pedestrians and cyclists.
Bill: Int. 1386-2025. Status: Sponsorship. Committee: Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure. Key dates: LS #17596 filed 9/4/2025; event recorded 9/10/2025. The matter is titled "A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York in relation to requiring prompt repair of street furniture." Primary sponsor: Council Member Frank Morano. Co-sponsor: Council Member Julie Menin. The bill requires agencies and their contractors to repair or replace damaged or missing street furniture within three months, to keep a public log of notices, and to publish an annual report. Requiring timely repair/replacement and public tracking of damaged street furniture (e.g., bike racks, bus shelters, bollards, wayfinding) reduces hazards and maintains protective elements in pedestrian spaces. Better-maintained amenities can also support walking and cycling uptake, yielding safety-in-numbers benefits.
