Five Dead, No Answers: Marine Park Streets Demand Justice Now
Marine Park-Plumb Island: Jan 1, 2022 - Jun 4, 2025
The Numbers Behind the Loss
Five dead. Two of them on foot. One on a bike. In Marine Park-Plumb Island, the years do not pass quietly. From 2022 through early June 2025, 372 crashes tore through these streets. 238 people were hurt. No one walks away the same. The dead do not walk away at all.
Pedestrians and cyclists are the first to pay. Two pedestrians killed. One cyclist, age 91, did not make it home. The Belt Parkway runs through the heart of this district. It is a river of steel. It does not forgive mistakes. It does not care who steps into its path.
The Pattern: Cars, SUVs, and the Unending Risk
SUVs and sedans are the weapons of choice. Of the five deaths, three came at the hands of cars or SUVs. No motorcycles or mopeds took a life here in this period. No trucks or buses. The numbers do not lie. Every year, the same story: drivers, speed, and the bodies left behind.
Children are not spared. In the last twelve months, eight people under 18 were hurt. One was killed. The youngest victims do not get a headline. They get a hospital bed, or worse.
Leadership: Promises and Silence
The city talks about Vision Zero. They talk about lowering speed limits, about cameras, about safer crossings. But here, the carnage continues. No new laws, no bold action from local leaders. The silence is heavy. The numbers are not.
Every crash is preventable. Every death is a choice made by those in power. Speed cameras work. Lower speed limits save lives. But action is slow. The dead are not coming back.
What Comes Next
This is not fate. This is policy. Call your council member. Call the mayor. Demand a 20 mph speed limit. Demand more speed cameras. Demand streets where children can cross and live. Do not wait for another name on the list.
