- ≥ 6 (6+): advocates’ standard for repeat speeding offenders who should face escalating consequences.
- ≥ 16 (16+): threshold in the current edited bill awaiting State Senate action.
About this list
This ranks vehicles by the number of NYC school‑zone speed‑camera violations they received in the last 12 months anywhere in the city. The smaller note shows how many times the same plate was caught in this area in the last 90 days.
Camera violations are issued by NYC DOT’s program. Counts reflect issued tickets and may omit dismissed or pending cases. Plate text is shown verbatim as recorded.

Four bike crashes in two weeks. Hell’s Kitchen bleeds on schedule.
Hell’s Kitchen: Jan 1, 2022 - Nov 23, 2025
A 64-year-old woman riding a bike went down at W 46 St and 11 Ave about 5:30 PM on Nov 16. City records say she suffered a head injury and was semiconscious at the scene (NYC Open Data).
She is one of the 1,119 people injured in Hell’s Kitchen since 2022. Seven people have been killed here in that time (NYC Open Data).
This Month
- Nov 16: A person on a bike was hurt at W 46 St and 11 Ave; officials logged a head injury and ejection from the bike (NYC Open Data).
- Nov 11: Near W 42 St, a person on an e‑bike was injured; the other vehicle on record was a parked SUV (NYC Open Data).
- Nov 4: At W 44 St and 9 Ave, a person on a bike was hurt as a Toyota SUV made a left turn, per the report (NYC Open Data).
- Nov 1: Another person on a bike was injured; the record lists a parked Ford SUV as the other vehicle (NYC Open Data).
Corners that don’t forgive
The map repeats the same names. 8 Avenue. West 57 Street. City data tags them as injury hotspots in this area (NYC Open Data). Late afternoon is dangerous here; deaths also appear in the dead of night around 3 AM (NYC Open Data).
The reports name the moves that break bodies. At 11 Ave and W 49 St, police recorded failure to yield by the driver during a left turn that injured a person walking (CrashID 4851365, NYC Open Data). At W 45 St and 10 Ave, police recorded driver inattention in a crash that injured a person on a bike (CrashID 4851363, NYC Open Data). At W 44 St and 9 Ave this month, the report lists a left turn before a cyclist went down (CrashID 4855894, NYC Open Data).
The toll, person by person
Since 2022 in this neighborhood, people walking have faced 3 deaths and 302 injuries. People on bikes: 1 death and 234 injuries. These are not abstractions. They are faces in a crosswalk and riders at the curb (NYC Open Data).
Officials know the fixes
On policy, there is movement and there are gaps. State Sen. Brad Hoylman‑Sigal co‑sponsored and voted yes on S 4045, a bill to require speed‑limiting tech for repeat dangerous drivers (Open States). Assembly Member Linda Rosenthal co‑sponsored A 7997 to expand camera enforcement against plate obstruction and keep speed cameras operating (NY Assembly).
Closer to Midtown, a car‑free 34th Street busway is back on the table as part of the rezoning push. Council Member Erik Bottcher backed the plan. “We’re tackling New York’s housing crisis head‑on by unlocking over 9,500 new homes in one of the most transit‑rich, high‑opportunity areas of the city,” he said as the deal advanced (AMNY). Support for the busway was also reported by the city’s press and advocates (Streetsblog NYC; AMNY). Fewer cars and simpler crossings on a major crosstown street will matter here.
Make the next turn safer
The pattern is set out in the city’s own ledgers. Corners repeat. Moves repeat. So do the injuries. Albany has a bill to stop repeat speeders. City Hall can lower speeds and harden turns. Our Council Member backs a car‑free busway that clears room for people. The Assembly and Council can finish the work. Take one step today: add your name and make the calls at Take Action.
