Springfield Gardens (North)-Rochdale Village: Jan 1, 2022 - Nov 4, 2025

This Week

  • On Sept 28 at Rockaway Blvd and 150 St, a taxi driver turned left and injured a person crossing with the signal; police recorded driver distraction. source

Left turns, missed yields, hurt bodies

Police reports in these crashes name driver inattention and failure to yield. The locations repeat: Rockaway Boulevard, Edgewood Avenue, Farmers Boulevard. Each case put a person on foot or on a bike on the ground. source

On Baisley Boulevard and Farmers Boulevard, injuries pile up. Since 2022, Baisley has logged 69 injuries and one death; Farmers shows 56 injuries and one death. These are this neighborhood’s top hot spots. source

Evening brings more harm. The 5 PM hour shows the most injuries here in the record. Nights see death too. source

A neighborhood ledger of pain

From Jan 1, 2022 through Nov 4, 2025, this area recorded 1,233 crashes, 697 injuries, and 2 deaths. Pedestrians account for 106 injuries and 1 death; people on bikes for 37 injuries. These are the numbers for Springfield Gardens (North)–Rochdale Village. source

At intersections, police often record turning drivers as the striking party. Crosswalks do not stop steel. Recent reports list left turns at Rockaway and 150 St; Edgewood and 140 Ave; Farmers and 142 Ave. Each time, a person crossing is hit. source

The fixes are known; the work lags

Daylighting—clearing cars from crosswalk corners—saves sight lines. City Hall knows it. The Council’s Progressive Caucus pushed a universal daylighting bill this year. source

The Council’s speaker put safety first but kept the bill in process. “The safety of pedestrians and all street users remains a top priority… Intro. 1138 is going through the council’s legislative process,” she said. source

Here, the map points to simple work: daylight corners on Baisley and Farmers; harden left turns where drivers cut; give walkers a head start on the signal. Night hours need light and enforcement where injuries peak. source

Albany steps; more is on the table

Albany extended NYC’s school‑zone speed camera law this summer. Local lawmakers backed it. State Sen. James Sanders and Assembly Member Vivian Cook voted yes on S 8344. source

Curbing repeat speeders is next. A Senate bill to rein in habitual speeders (S 4045) moved in committee with a yes from Sen. Sanders. The Council can pass daylighting. The city can keep lowering speeds. The path is there. source

Do the one thing today

If you live near Baisley or Farmers, you know the drill: the turn, the screech, the siren. Tell City Hall and Albany to finish the job—lower speeds, daylight corners, and stop repeat speeders. Start here.
