Hutchinson Metro Center: Jan 1, 2022 - Jun 4, 2025

The Numbers Do Not Lie

One dead. Seventy-nine injured. Zero serious injuries. That is the toll in Hutchinson Metro Center since 2022. The dead was a 65-year-old, struck by an SUV. The living carry broken bones, whiplash, pain that lingers. NYC Open Data

Crashes do not slow. In the last twelve months, there were 41 crashes here. Twenty people hurt. One did not come home. The year before, the count was the same: 24 crashes, 20 injured. The numbers do not fall. They hold steady, like a drumbeat.

Who Pays the Price

Pedestrians and cyclists are not safe. In February, a 25-year-old cyclist and a 21-year-old moped rider collided. Both ejected. Both injured. In September, a man in his sixties tried to cross the parkway. He died under the wheels of an SUV. The street does not forgive. The street does not care.

Most injuries come from cars and SUVs. No bikes killed. No trucks or buses. But the cars keep coming. The SUVs keep coming. The count rises.

Leadership: Words, Not Enough

The laws are on the books. Sammy’s Law passed. The city can lower speed limits. Cameras can catch speeders. But the limit is not yet lower. The cameras are not everywhere. The pain is still here.

Local leaders have the power. They can push for 20 mph limits. They can demand more cameras. They can redesign streets. They can do more. Or they can wait. Every day of waiting is another day for the count to rise.

Act Now—Or Count the Dead

Call your council member. Call the mayor. Demand safer speeds. Demand more cameras. Demand streets that do not kill.

Do not wait for another name on the list.

Take action now.
