Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in Bushwick (West)?
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.

The measure, sponsored by Senator Jamaal Bailey, excludes violations in cooperative housing developments with at least 10,000 Mitchell-Lama units from bus operation traffic regulations. The bill advanced through committee and received broad support in both chambers. By exempting these large complexes, the law weakens traffic enforcement where thousands live. This move increases risk to pedestrians and cyclists, stripping away protections that save lives. Vulnerable road users lose another layer of safety in dense city streets.
