A cyclist dies on Meserole. The pattern holds.
East Williamsburg: Jan 1, 2022 - Oct 2, 2025
Just after 2 AM on Sep 27, 2025, at Meserole St and Leonard St, a driver in a Tesla going straight hit a 32-year-old woman on a bike. She was killed (NYC Open Data).
This Week
- At Montrose Ave and Lorimer St, the driver of a Ford SUV making a left hit a 24-year-old woman who was crossing with the signal (NYC Open Data).
- Near 990 Grand St, a 14-year-old boy riding a bike was injured alongside a 2008 box truck (NYC Open Data).
- At Bushwick Ave and Grand St, a 35-year-old woman on a bike suffered a head injury in a crash with a sedan (NYC Open Data).
The toll on these blocks
Since 2022 in East Williamsburg, 10 people have been killed and 1,849 injured in 3,913 crashes; 34 were seriously hurt (NYC Open Data). Pedestrians account for 4 of the dead; people on bikes, 3; vehicle occupants, 3 (CrashCount analysis of the same dataset).
The dead of night is not empty here. Between midnight and 3 AM, five deaths cluster on the clock (CrashCount analysis of NYC Open Data).
Trucks figure in the worst outcomes for people walking: four pedestrian deaths involve trucks and buses in this area since 2022 (CrashCount analysis of NYC Open Data period stats).
Police records in this area note failure to yield and distraction among the factors in injury crashes (CrashCount analysis of NYC Open Data contributing factors).
Morgan Avenue keeps bleeding
Morgan Avenue is a top danger zone in this neighborhood, with 3 deaths and 76 injuries recorded (CrashCount analysis of NYC Open Data). Advocates and local leaders have pressed for a redesign to add a protected bike lane, mid‑block crossings, and loading zones. “Every single death… is 100 percentable preventable,” Council Member Jennifer Gutiérrez said in support of the push (Streetsblog NYC).
Who moved, and who must
Council Member Jennifer Gutiérrez co‑sponsored a bill to force faster school‑zone fixes, requiring DOT to install approved traffic‑calming or control devices near schools within 60 days of a study determination (NYC Council – Legistar). She also backed the Morgan Avenue safety redesign (Streetsblog NYC).
State Senator Julia Salazar co‑sponsored and voted yes on the Stop Super Speeders Act (S4045), which would require speed‑limiting tech for repeat dangerous drivers (Open States). Assembly Member Maritza Davila co‑sponsors the Assembly version (A2299) according to the public record in our timeline.
Local fixes are ready now: daylighting at corners, hardened left turns, protected bike lanes on freight routes like Morgan, and targeted truck enforcement. School‑area treatments should not wait—Int. 1353 would put a clock on them (NYC Council – Legistar).
Slow the cars. Stop the repeats.
Citywide steps match the pain on these blocks. Lowering default speeds and fitting repeat violators with intelligent speed assistance are on the table. The Senate bill is moving; the Assembly can finish the job (Open States).
One woman died on Meserole. The list won’t end itself. Act now: take action.
