The Toll: Lives Shattered, Streets Unforgiving

Five dead. Twelve seriously hurt. In Eastchester-Edenwald-Baychester, the numbers do not tell the whole story, but they do not lie. Since 2022, crashes have left 967 people injured. The dead do not speak. The wounded carry scars. In the last twelve months, three people died and 340 were hurt in 399 crashes. Children, elders, workers—no one is spared.

A 60-year-old man was killed on Givan Avenue. The cause: driver inattention and unsafe speed. The record reads, “Crush injuries. Apparent death.” No more details. No more days. NYC Open Data

The Pattern: Cars, Trucks, and the Human Cost

SUVs and sedans do most of the harm. Of the pedestrian injuries and deaths, 114 came from cars and SUVs, 8 from trucks and buses, 1 from a moped, 2 from bikes. The street is not neutral. The bigger the vehicle, the harder the blow.

A witness saw a woman “laid out” on the ground after a crash. “They was giving her medical attention, checking her body. She was laid out,” said Samuel Cherry. The sound of the crash stays with the living. “It was a terrible sound – it was a terrible incident that happened,” said Jennifer.

The Response: What Leaders Have Done—And Not Done

Senator Jamaal Bailey voted yes on the Stop Super Speeders Act, a bill to force repeat dangerous drivers to install speed-limiting devices. He also backed the expansion of school speed zones. Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie has supported red light camera expansion and bills to cut driving miles, but in the past, he blocked city control over speed limits. Progress comes slow. Lives are lost in the waiting.

The Call: Demand Action, Not Excuses

Every crash is preventable. Every delay is a choice. Call your council member. Call your state senator. Tell them: Lower the speed limit. Expand camera enforcement. Require speed-limiting devices for repeat offenders. Do not wait for another name on the list.

Act now.

Citywide fixes are necessary. Lower NYC’s default speed limit across the city, and require speed limiters (intelligent speed assistance) for habitual speeders. Those two moves — lower limits plus enforced tech limits for repeat offenders — would turn local pain into a citywide brake on deadly driving.
