Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in Pelham Gardens?
Pelham Gardens Bleeds While Leaders Stall
Pelham Gardens: Jan 1, 2022 - Jun 4, 2025
The Toll in Pelham Gardens
The streets do not forgive. In Pelham Gardens, the numbers do not lie. Zero people killed. Ninety-two injured in the last year. Children, elders, workers. The wounds are spread across ages—ten children hurt, two elders over 75, and no one spared by luck or habit. City crash data
No one walks away untouched. In the past twelve months, there have been 140 crashes. Not one death this year, but the injuries keep coming. A boy, 11, thrown from his scooter. A woman, 46, left with bleeding arms. The street keeps its silence.
Who Bears the Brunt
SUVs and sedans do the most harm. In three years, SUVs killed one, left nine with moderate injuries. No deaths from bikes. No deaths from motorcycles. The danger rolls on four wheels, heavy and fast. See the data
Pedestrians are not safe in the crosswalk. Children are not safe on their way to school. The old are not safe at the curb. The numbers are steady. The pain is not.
Leadership: Words and Waiting
The city has tools. Sammy’s Law lets New York lower speed limits. Cameras catch speeders. But in Pelham Gardens, the pace of change is slow. The council can act. The mayor can act. The state can act. Every day of delay is another day of risk.
No new laws from the local council. No bold redesigns. The silence is loud. The danger is louder.
What Comes Next
This is not fate. These are not accidents. These are choices. The city can lower the speed limit to 20 mph. The council can demand safer crossings. The state can keep speed cameras running. But only if you demand it.
Call your council member. Call the mayor. Demand safer streets. Do not wait for another name on the list. Take action now.
