- ≥ 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.

Clinton Hill: The hits don’t stop
Clinton Hill: Jan 1, 2022 - Aug 24, 2025
Another corner. Same ending.
- On Fulton and Washington, a driver in a Ford SUV going straight hit a 55‑year‑old woman. She died there. The dataset lists her as a pedestrian, not at an intersection. Time stamp: May 17, 2025, 12:21 a.m. The impact was the right front bumper. NYC’s crash record shows the death and the body crushed.
- A 33‑year‑old on a Vespa was ejected at Classon and Clifton and died. The SUV that struck him was going straight. June 1, 2022. The city record marks “Apparent Death.”
- A cyclist’s arm was severed near Fulton in 2024. Another cyclist was crushed on Vanderbilt in 2024. Those cases sit in this beat’s log of pain. The pattern is not subtle.
On July 8, 2025, at 470 Vanderbilt, a Mini sedan hit a 28‑year‑old bicyclist. The file says the driver was inattentive. The rider was listed with “severe lacerations.” He was conscious. He wore a helmet. The sedan kept straight. The bike tried to avoid an object. The quarter panel tells the story. The city file is blunt.
“Apparent Death.” “Severe Lacerations.” The forms don’t scream. They don’t have to.
Where the street breaks you
The worst bodies stack on the same lines. The Brooklyn‑Queens Expressway is a top hotspot for injuries and death tied to this neighborhood. So is Classon Avenue. Fulton Street and Washington Avenue follow.
The clock tells its own truth. Injuries spike at school and commute hours: 7 a.m. and 8 a.m. carry dozens of hurt. Mid‑afternoon is worse. At 3 p.m., sixty‑eight injuries. At 2 p.m. and 1 p.m., near fifty each. Deaths show up at 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. The hours are stamped in the ledger. The city’s counts don’t flinch.
What causes the hurt
The numbers point at hands on wheels. “Driver inattention/distraction.” “Failure to yield.” “Aggressive driving.” “Unsafe speed.” Mechanical failure barely registers. In these years, pedestrians took 91 injuries and one death. Cyclists took 115 injuries. SUV and car fronts do most of the damage. That is all in the city’s rollup. Open data lays it out.
A state dataset shows the dead by age. Two people 55–64 died in the first half of this year in this area. Total crashes are up more than 60% year‑over‑year to 233 by mid‑June. Injuries up more than 50%. These are not curves. They are people. The period stats are public.
Police van. Red light. A man dragged.
On Eastern Parkway in 2022, an NYPD van sped, ran a red, and hit Ronald Smith. The van dragged him 35 to 40 feet. The state Attorney General released the video. His sister spoke after. “These officers drove an NYPD van so fast and recklessly… they dragged my brother… and had no regard for my brother’s life.” Read the AG release coverage. The department would not say if the officers were disciplined.
The same streets. The same fixes.
- Daylight the corners along Fulton, Washington, and Classon. Harden the turns. Give leading pedestrian intervals. Put weight where the bodies fall.
- Build the missing protection on the Ashland‑Vanderbilt spine. Electeds asked DOT to finish the protected link on Ashland Place. DOT did not. Their letter and reporting are public.
- Target repeat hotspots at the same hours. The city’s own counts say where and when. Use them.
Officials know what works — do they?
Albany gave the city power to lower speeds. The city has the cameras running all day. Survivors keep pleading. The action items are not secrets. Our own guide shows how to push your council member and the mayor to set safer speeds and back limits on repeat speeders. Take action here.
“Repeat speeders keep killing people in our district,” say sponsors of a bill to force speed limiters on the worst drivers. The Senate version moved in June. State Sen. Jabari Brisport voted yes in committee. The Assembly version lists local co‑sponsors. The bill would require speed‑limiting tech for drivers with a record of tickets or points. Read the Senate file and the Assembly file.
A last thing you can’t unsee
At 470 Vanderbilt, the injury note reads “Severe Lacerations.” At Fulton and Washington, the note reads “Crush Injuries.” The forms are short. The pain is not. The files stay up.
—
Bold steps save lives. Lower the default speed. Stop the super speeders. Start on the corners that already took enough.
Do one thing today: tell City Hall to slow the streets.
