Nights take their pound of flesh
Deaths stack up after dark here. Police records show fatal counts peaking around 10 PM, with two or more deaths also recorded at 7 PM, 1 AM, and midnight over the period NYC Open Data.
Named driver errors appear again and again in the files: inattention and distraction; disregarding signals; failure to yield. Each comes attached to injured bodies at this scale: inattention with 18 injuries; disregarding traffic control with 12; failure to yield with 11 NYC Open Data.
Corners we already know
Bruckner Boulevard appears again and again in the crash logs. So does the Major Deegan. Police list both among the highest-injury locations in this area since 2022 NYC Open Data.

The work only leaders can do
Albany has a bill ready to cage repeat speeders. The Senate’s S 4045 would require speed limiters for drivers with patterns of dangerous violations; Sen. Jose Serrano co-sponsored it and voted yes in committee this June Open States. The Assembly’s A 2299 matches it; Assembly Member Amanda Septimo is a co-sponsor Open States. On the city side, Council Member Diana Ayala co-sponsored a bill to ban parking near crosswalks, a basic sightline fix at turns NYC Council.
These streets will not slow themselves. The Assembly can pass A 2299. The Senate can keep S 4045 moving. The city can keep clearing corners and hardening turns on E 138 St and along Bruckner Boulevard. Each day without action is another body in the road.
Take one step now. Tell your representatives to act on speed and repeat offenders. Start here.
