Left turn at Wyckoff and Putnam. A man on foot goes down.
Bushwick (East): Jan 1, 2022 - Dec 12, 2025
Just after 3 PM on Dec 4 at Wyckoff and Putnam, a truck driver turned left and hit a 32-year-old man in the marked crosswalk. Police recorded failure to yield and distraction by the driver NYC Open Data.
This Week
- Nov 24, a 13-year-old walking near Eldert St was injured; details on the driver are missing NYC Open Data.
- Nov 13, at Bushwick Ave and Van Buren St, a left-turning SUV driver hit a 35-year-old woman in the crosswalk NYC Open Data.
- Nov 12, at Wilson Ave and Gates Ave, a right-turning driver in a GMC truck hit an 18-year-old woman who had the signal NYC Open Data.
The toll on these blocks
Since Jan 1, 2022, this neighborhood has seen 2,554 crashes, leaving 1,287 people injured and 5 people dead NYC Open Data. People on foot were hit in 211 crashes, with 224 injuries and 1 death here in that span (same source).
Late afternoon is brutal: about 4 PM saw the most injuries in this area during the period, with 90 recorded at that hour NYC Open Data. Failure to yield and disregarding traffic control show up again and again in police reports for these corners, including last month’s crosswalk hits (same source).
Hot spots repeat. Bushwick Avenue leads local harm, and Central Avenue isn’t far behind NYC Open Data.
Fix the corners drivers cut
Daylighting would clear sightlines where people keep getting hit. As Council Member Sandy Nurse put it, “Universal daylighting is a proven, effective way to make our streets safer for pedestrians, bikers and drivers” City & State NY. Hardened turns and leading pedestrian intervals would slow turning drivers at Wyckoff/Putnam, Bushwick/Van Buren, and Wilson/Gates NYC Open Data. With trucks showing up in recent crosswalk crashes here, the city can target truck turns and routing during the worst hours (same source).
The laws on the table
Albany extended the city’s school speed zone authority this year, a step that keeps a core safety tool alive Open States: S 8344. State Sen. Julia Salazar co-sponsored the Stop Super Speeders Act (S 4045) and voted yes in committee; the bill would require intelligent speed assistance for habitual violators Open States: S 4045. Assembly Member Erik Dilan represents this area; his sponsorship of the companion bill is not listed here. What gives?
City Hall has the power to lower speeds on local streets. Our Council Member is Sandy Nurse. The Council is already pushing for universal daylighting City & State NY.
Do not wait for the sirens
Four people walking, hit at our corners in the past month NYC Open Data. The pattern is old and local. Slow the turns. Clear the corners. Back the speed limiter bill. Lower the limit.
Take one step now. Tell your officials to act on speed and repeat offenders /take_action/.
