Four Dead, Dozens Broken—Sheepshead Bay Streets Still Kill
Sheepshead Bay-Manhattan Beach-Gerritsen Beach: Jan 1, 2022 - Jun 4, 2025
The Numbers Don’t Lie
Four dead. Six seriously hurt. In just over three years, the streets of Sheepshead Bay–Manhattan Beach–Gerritsen Beach have claimed lives and broken bodies. The dead include the old and the very old—a 99-year-old man crossing at an intersection, a 57-year-old woman riding in a car, a 77-year-old driver crushed on Ocean Avenue, and a 58-year-old man struck while crossing Belt Parkway. Their names are not here. Their absence is.
In the last twelve months: 334 people injured, two left with life-changing wounds. Children are not spared—45 injured, one seriously. The young, the old, the in-between. No one is safe. NYC Open Data
The Crashes Keep Coming
On June 3, an 87-year-old man stood near the corner of East 12th Street and Avenue Z. An MTA bus turned left. The man was pinned beneath the wheels. He left in an ambulance, fighting for his life. The bus was empty. The street was not. Police said officers who responded to the scene discovered an 87-year-old man pinned under the city bus at East 12th Street and Avenue Z in Sheepshead Bay around 6:40 p.m.
A week earlier, a motorcyclist died at Avenue U and Flatbush. The FDNY truck had its lights and sirens on. The man on the bike did not make it home. The fire truck had its lights and sirens blaring, cops said.
Leadership: Progress or Delay?
Local leaders have tools. Sammy’s Law lets the city lower speed limits. Speed cameras cut speeding and injuries. But action is slow. Promises are made. Streets stay deadly. The city says, “one life lost to traffic violence is one life too many.” The bodies say more.
What Next? Demand More
Every day without change is another day of risk. Call your council member. Call the mayor. Demand lower speed limits. Demand more cameras. Demand streets built for people, not just cars. Don’t wait for another name to be added to the list.
