Three Dead, 114 Hurt—Speed Kills, Leaders Stall
Upper East Side-Yorkville: Jan 1, 2022 - Jun 4, 2025
The Numbers Do Not Lie
Three people are dead. Fourteen more have been left with serious injuries. In just over three years, the streets of Upper East Side-Yorkville have not spared the young or the old. Pedestrians, cyclists, drivers—no one is immune. In the last twelve months alone, there were 232 crashes. One hundred fourteen people were hurt. Three suffered injuries so severe they may never walk the same, according to NYC Open Data.
The Pattern Is Relentless
A woman crossing with the light at 3rd Avenue and East 80th was struck by a taxi. Her shoulder crushed. CrashID 4760573 A cyclist, 24, thrown from his bike at 2nd Avenue and East 94th, left bleeding in the street. CrashID 4814750 The dead do not speak. The injured carry the story in scars and limps.
Most victims are not behind the wheel. They are walking. They are riding. They are trying to get home. Cars and trucks are the main weapons—two deaths, four serious injuries. Bikes and mopeds are not innocent, but their toll is smaller, as shown in period_stats.
Leadership: Progress and Delay
The city has made moves. Sammy’s Law passed. The city can now lower speed limits to 20 mph. But the limit has not dropped yet. Cameras catch speeders, but the law that keeps them running is always at risk of expiring, according to Take Action.
Local leaders have not done enough. The numbers do not move fast enough. The dead do not come back. Every day of delay is another day of risk.
What Comes Next
This is not fate. This is policy. Call your council member. Call the mayor. Demand the 20 mph limit. Demand cameras that never go dark. Demand streets where walking does not mean risking your life, as urged by Take Action.
Do not wait for another name on the list. Act now.
