Bushwick’s Blood Price: How Many More Must Die Before We Act?

Bushwick (West): Jan 1, 2022 - Aug 4, 2025

The Numbers Don’t Lie

Three dead. Nine seriously hurt. In Bushwick (West), from 2022 to now, the street keeps taking. In the last twelve months alone, 272 people were injured in crashes. The dead do not get a second chance. The injured carry it with them.

Just this spring, a van struck and killed a 59-year-old man at Wyckoff and De Kalb. He was crossing with the signal. The driver turned right. He did not make it home.

The Pattern: No End in Sight

Children are not spared. In May, an 11-year-old and a 16-year-old were injured by a pick-up truck on Stanhope Street. In September, a 26-year-old cyclist was killed at Evergreen and Hart. The list goes on. Cars, trucks, vans, mopeds—each one a weapon in the wrong hands.

Leadership: Votes and Silence

Local leaders have moved, but not fast enough. State Senator Julia Salazar voted yes on the Stop Super Speeders Act, a bill to force repeat reckless drivers to install speed limiters. Assembly Member Maritza Davila co-sponsored the same bill. These are steps, not solutions. The street does not wait for studies or speeches.

The city removed a protected bike lane on Bedford Avenue just last week. The barrier is gone. Cyclists are left to fend for themselves.

The Voices of the Living

The numbers are cold. The words cut deeper. After another Brooklyn pedestrian was killed, police reported, “A driver struck and killed a 47-year-old pedestrian… then left the scene.” The street is quiet again. The blood is washed away. The danger remains.

What Now: No More Waiting

This is not fate. It is policy. Every day without action is a choice. Call your council member. Call the mayor. Demand a 20 mph speed limit. Demand real protection for every person who walks or rides. Do not wait for another name on the list.

Julia Salazar Supports Safety Boosting Queens Express Bus Expansion

May 16 - Queens lawmakers demand more express buses before the $15 congestion toll hits. They say MTA left Queens behind. Riders in transit deserts face long, costly trips. Lawmakers call the exclusion unacceptable. They want fair service before new fees begin.

On May 16, 2024, ten Queens lawmakers, including Julia Salazar (District 18), urged the MTA to expand express bus service to Queens before the $15 Manhattan congestion toll starts. The group wrote to MTA chairman Janno Lieber, stating, "Express buses play a vital role in Queens’ public transit network and only stand to become even more pivotal in the near and distant future." They criticized the MTA for boosting express bus service in Brooklyn and Staten Island but not Queens, calling the exclusion "unacceptable." The lawmakers stressed that many southeast and northeast Queens residents lack subway access and rely on express buses to reach Midtown. They argued the 10 percent LIRR discount is no substitute for robust bus service. Salazar and her colleagues support congestion pricing but insist its success depends on expanded, equitable transit for all vulnerable riders.

Int 0875-2024 Nurse co-sponsors bill boosting step street lighting, improving pedestrian safety.

May 16 - Council moves to light up step streets. At least 25 stairways each year will get new lamps. Dark paths become visible. Pedestrians gain ground. Shadows shrink. Danger loses its cover.

Int 0875-2024 sits in the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure after introduction on May 16, 2024. The bill reads: 'A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to requiring the installation of pedestrian lighting on step streets.' Prime sponsor Joann Ariola, joined by sixteen co-sponsors, pushes for at least 25 step streets to be lit each year until all are covered. Step streets are open-air staircases linking streets at different heights. The bill aims to strip darkness from these paths, making them safer for people on foot. No safety analyst note was provided.

Reynoso Supports Transparency and Safety Data for Waste Haulers

May 7 - City wants waste haulers to report every crash, injury, and reckless move. The rule targets companies with deadly records. Data will track harm, expose danger, and force accountability. Streets and lives hang in the balance. The city must act.

On May 7, 2024, the Department of Sanitation proposed amendments to the Commercial Waste Zones program. The rule, not yet law, would require all contracted waste haulers to submit detailed crash and driving data twice a year. The matter targets companies like Action Carting, linked to at least five traffic deaths. Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso, who led the original reforms as a council member, said, 'Crash data from [commercial waste zone] awardees is good, but crash data from CWZ applicants would have been even better.' The bill aims to end the 'Wild West' of private waste hauling, which killed seven New Yorkers in a single year. The new rules demand real-time telematics, immediate injury reports, and full transparency on crashes. Advocates say the data could help redesign streets and hold dangerous drivers to account. The city must prevent weak enforcement from gutting the law’s promise.

S 2714 Salazar votes yes, boosting street safety and access for everyone.

Mar 27 - Senate passes S 2714. Bill pushes complete street design. Aim: safer roads for all. Pedestrians, cyclists, and riders get space. Car dominance challenged. Lawmakers move to cut street carnage.

Senate bill S 2714, titled 'Enables safe access to public roads for all users by utilizing complete street design principles,' advanced through committee and passed several Senate votes, most recently on March 27, 2024. Sponsored by Timothy M. Kennedy with support from Jake Ashby, Jamaal Bailey, and others, the bill mandates street designs that protect everyone—not just drivers. The measure saw strong support but faced opposition from some senators. By requiring complete street principles, S 2714 aims to reduce danger for pedestrians, cyclists, and transit users. The bill marks a shift away from car-first planning, forcing cities to build streets for people, not just traffic.

Reynoso Criticizes Slow Untransparent Commercial Waste Zone Rollout

Mar 26 - The city’s commercial waste zone plan crawls forward. Only one Queens zone launches this fall. Nineteen more wait in limbo. Oversight is absent. Haulers with deadly records win contracts. Advocates demand speed, transparency, and real safety for streets choked by trucks.

Council Bill for commercial waste zone reform, passed in 2019, remains stalled. The Department of Sanitation (DSNY) will launch only one zone in central Queens after September 3, 2024. The oversight task force has not met in two years. Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso, who authored the law as a Council member, called DSNY’s rollout a 'missed opportunity' for clarity and accountability. Justin Wood of New York Lawyers for the Public Interest warned, 'The system cannot achieve transformational change if it is treated as a limited pilot program.' The city’s goal to cut truck miles falls short of original promises. Action Carting, whose driver killed a cyclist in 2017, secured contracts for 14 zones. Advocates say the lack of outreach, oversight, and clear safety benchmarks leaves vulnerable road users at risk. No safety analyst assessment was provided.

S 6808 Salazar votes yes to create safety zones, improving street safety for all.

Mar 20 - Senate passes S 6808. The bill creates first responder safety zones. It sets speed limits in these zones. Lawmakers act after crashes and close calls. The vote is strong. The danger is real. The streets demand change.

Senate bill S 6808, titled 'Relates to establishing first responder safety zones and setting speed limits in such safety zones,' moved through committee and passed multiple Senate votes between May 2023 and March 2024. Primary sponsor John Mannion led the push, joined by Joseph P. Addabbo Jr., Iwen Chu, and Pamela Helming. The bill aims to carve out protected zones for first responders and lower speed limits in those areas. The measure passed with broad support, reflecting urgency after repeated crashes near emergency scenes. The bill’s text and votes show lawmakers responding to the deadly toll of reckless driving near first responders. Vulnerable road users—pedestrians, passengers, and responders—stand in harm’s way. The bill targets that risk.
