Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in East Flatbush-Erasmus?
East Flatbush Bleeds—And City Hall Looks Away
East Flatbush-Erasmus: Jan 1, 2022 - Jul 18, 2025
The Slow Grind of Loss
In East Flatbush-Erasmus, the numbers do not lie. Two people have died and seven have been seriously injured on these streets since 2022. NYC Open Data The wounds are not just numbers. They are heads split open, bodies crushed, families left with empty chairs. In the last twelve months alone, 238 people were hurt in 362 crashes. No one was spared: children, elders, cyclists, pedestrians.
Just weeks ago, a man on a moped was left bleeding from the head after a collision on New York Avenue. A 40-year-old woman crossing with the light was crushed at Linden and Rogers. The dead do not speak. The living remember.
The Vehicles That Do the Damage
Cars and SUVs are the main threat. They caused 146 pedestrian injuries here, including three serious injuries. Trucks and buses killed one and hurt nine more. Motorcycles, mopeds, and bikes added to the toll, but the carnage comes on four wheels more often than two.
What Leaders Have Done—and Not Done
State Senator Kevin Parker voted yes on the Stop Super Speeders Act, a bill to force repeat dangerous drivers to install speed limiters. Open States The law targets the small group of drivers who rack up tickets and keep killing. But the bill is not law yet. The streets wait.
Assembly Member Rodneyse Bichotte Hermelyn voted to extend school speed zones. This helps, but only at the margins. The danger does not clock out at 3 p.m.
The silence is louder than the votes. No one has called for a 20 mph citywide speed limit. No one has demanded protected bike lanes on every deadly stretch.
The Voices Left Behind
After a crash, the families gather what is left. “It’s devastating. It’s affecting everyone in our family, especially (Ruiz’s) mom. Maddy was her only daughter,” said Ruiz’s sister-in-law. The tire marks fade. The grief does not.
A neighbor, after two men were killed crossing Third Avenue, said simply: “Drivers speed on that stretch of roadway.” CBS New York
The Next Step Is Yours
This is not fate. This is policy. Call your council member. Call your state senator. Demand a 20 mph speed limit. Demand speed cameras on every block. Demand action before another family is left with nothing but a name and a date.
