How we calculate this

We calculate these costs using a method developed by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, or NHTSA. It gives one set of costs for crashes with injuries and another for crashes with no reported injuries.

Crashes with injuries cost much more because the method includes things like lost work, medical care, and long-term harm. NHTSA says crash costs include "lost productivity, medical, legal and court costs, emergency service, insurance administration, congestion, property damage, and workplace losses."

These are estimates, not bills. "Other harm" is the part of the broader estimate that goes beyond direct bills and insurance claims. It captures pain, disability, and lost quality of life.

  • 2026-02-19 · Leadership · AMNY · ↑ helps grade
    A new NYLPI report says wheelchair riders wait longer for taxis and FHVs. Only 7% of NYC’s huge for-hire fleet is accessible. People get left at the curb, stuck waiting in busy pickup lanes.
  • 2026-02-04 · Leadership · Streetsblog Empire State · ↑ helps grade
    NYSERDA cut off implementation cash. The city’s first e-bike subsidy pilot froze. Low-income riders lost a planned path to legal, affordable e-bikes.
  • 2026-02-04 · Leadership · Streetsblog NYC · ↓ hurts grade
    NYSERDA gave planning cash, then cut off the build. Bike New York’s “Ride Clean New York” sits on paper. Riders in transit-poor and low-income areas keep waiting while car traffic keeps the edge.
  • 2026-01-27 · Leadership · Streetsblog Empire State · ↑ helps grade
    S8665/A5440 would let NYC ticket curb violations by camera. Backed by Julia Salazar and Steven Raga, the plan targets double-parking and blocked lanes that steal sightlines and force deadly merges.
