About these crash totals
Counts come from NYC police crash reports (NYC Open Data). We sum all crashes, injuries, and deaths for this area across the selected time window shown on the card. Injury severity follows the official definitions in the NYPD dataset.
- Crashes: number of police‑reported collisions (all road users).
- All injuries: total injured people in those crashes.
- Moderate / Serious: subcategories reported by officers (e.g., broken bones vs. life‑threatening trauma).
- Deaths: people who died due to a crash.
Notes: Police reports can be corrected after initial publication. Minor incidents without a police report are not included.

About this chart
We group pedestrian injuries and deaths by the vehicle type that struck them (as recorded in police reports). Use the dropdown to view totals, serious injuries, or deaths.
- Trucks/Buses, SUVs/Cars, Mopeds, and Bikes reflect the reporting categories in the crash dataset.
- Counts include people on foot only; crashes with no injured pedestrians are not shown here.
Notes: Police classification can change during investigations. Small categories may have year-to-year variance.
CloseAbout these numbers
These totals count vehicles with at least the shown number of camera‑issued speeding violations (school‑zone speed cameras) in any rolling 12‑month window in this district. Totals are summed from 2022 to the present for this geography.
- ≥ 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.

Inwood’s corners, counted in blood
Inwood: Jan 1, 2022 - Sep 15, 2025
A boy and a girl on an e‑bike went down in the evening at Seaman Avenue and Isham Street. Both were injured, both ejected. Police reports list them as 16 and 14.
Since 2022, Inwood has logged 814 crashes, with 3 people killed and 451 injured — including people walking and biking. That is the record, not a warning. City data shows the toll.
This is not a fluke. In the same period, police recorded deaths clustering at night — two around 4 AM and one about 10 PM — while injuries stack up through the day and evening. The pattern repeats. The dataset bears it out.
This Week
- Jul 24, a driver in an SUV making a U‑turn hit a person on a bike at W 207 Street and Vermilyea Avenue; police cited distraction and failure to yield by the driver (case).
- Jun 14, a driver’s inattention put a 22‑year‑old on a bike into a parked car on Broadway at W 212 Street (case).
- Jun 3, a turning sedan hit a man on a bike going straight on Broadway at W 218 Street (case).
Sherman and 10th: names we keep saying
Two people were killed along Sherman Avenue. One person died around 10th Avenue. These are the worst corners in the data. City records list them as top locations.
Police narratives here repeat the same causes you can fix on the street: failure to yield, unsafe speed, and distraction. On Apr 30, a driver failed to yield and hit a man crossing with the signal at Broadway and W 218 Street (crash 4809624). On Sep 16, 2024, a speeding driver in a BMW injured a man crossing with the signal at W 207 Street and 10th Avenue (crash 4756627). On Jul 24, a driver making a U‑turn took a cyclist in the door zone on W 207 Street (crash 4830305).
The worst moment in the record is older but plain. Two pedestrians were killed near W 207 Street and Sherman Avenue in a multi‑car collision. The cars were “demolished.” Speed was recorded. The men never got up. (crash 4552542)
Nights are long; the fixes are short
The city’s own tables show deaths at 4 AM and 10 PM. Injuries spike into the evening. That points to lighting, hardened turns, and signal time that favors people crossing — especially on Sherman, 10th, and Broadway. Open data makes the case.
Build the safe space and people live. The administration says it will expand protected paths: “We say everyone deserves a greenway. Having access to greenways is not a privilege; it’s a human right,” said DOT Commissioner Ydanis Rodriguez of the citywide plan. His words are on the record.
Albany can cut the speed; so can City Hall
The state’s repeat‑speeder bill, S 4045, would force speed‑limiters on cars tied to habitual violations. State Senator Robert Jackson co‑sponsors it and voted yes in committee (bill). The Legislature also extended protections in school speed zones in S 8344 — Jackson voted yes; Assembly Member Manny De Los Santos voted yes in his chamber (bill).
City Hall already has the power to lower speeds. Our neighbors pay the price each day we wait. The path is written down. The numbers are not moving on their own.
Lower the default speed. Curb the worst repeat offenders. Then go corner by corner on Sherman, 10th, and Broadway and harden the turns, daylight the sight lines, and give walkers the time.
One boy and one girl were thrown from a bike on Isham. There will be another night like that unless someone acts. Do something now.

Rodriguez Backs Safety‑Boosting Freight On River Pilot▸Dec 11 - A National Academy of Sciences study finds NYC speed cameras cut collisions and injuries. Crashes fell 30% over seven months near cameras; injuries fell 16%. Slower driving means fewer deadly impacts to pedestrians and cyclists.
No bill number. Not legislation. This is a report of research published 2025-12-11. Streetsblog NYC ran the piece headlined "A new study bolsters the city's program." Reporter Gersh Kuntzman wrote the article. The National Academy of Sciences found cameras reduce collisions about 5% per month and injuries 2.5% per month, yielding roughly 30% fewer collisions and 16% fewer injuries over seven months. No council member is named as sponsor or voter. No committee or vote events are recorded. Safety note: "The description lacks details about the program or policy changes affecting pedestrians or cyclists, so no population-level safety impact can be determined." The study still points to measurable harm reduction for pedestrians and cyclists.

DOT Commissioner Rodriguez Calls for Safety‑Boosting Fifth Avenue Open Streets▸Dec 10 - DOT will close Fifth Avenue and nearby Midtown blocks to cars for six hours on Dec. 14 for Holiday Open Streets. Pedestrians and cyclists gain wide, car-free space between 48th and 57th Streets. The closure reduces vehicle-pedestrian conflict.
""Midtown Manhattan is one of the best places in the world to celebrate the holiday season, and we're bringing some car-free holiday cheer to Fifth Avenue,"" -- Ydanis A. Rodriguez
Bill number: none. Status: DOT program announcement. Committee: N/A. Key dates: published Dec. 10, 2025; event slated for Sunday, Dec. 14, 2025 (six hours, noon–6 p.m.). The notice states: "Fifth Avenue, other Midtown blocks will be car-free for Holiday Open Streets this Sunday." The Department of Transportation is running the fourth-year program. No council members are listed as sponsors, voters, or quoted. DOT Commissioner Ydanis Rodriguez is quoted promoting the car-free zones. Safety note: Car-free Open Streets in Midtown reduce vehicle-pedestrian conflicts and provide safe, ample space for walking and cycling during peak crowds. Even temporary closures normalize people-first streets and can prompt mode shift and safety-in-numbers effects.

Nov 25 - A $108M DUMBO rebuild returned cobbles, added 8,800 feet of granite bike lanes, 114 ADA ramps and the Pearl Street Plaza. The bike network and plaza cut vehicle dominance and calm traffic; cobbles can hazard cyclists but smooth granite lanes likely mitigate risk.
""This special project helped preserve the historic feel of DUMBO, establish a world-class permanent plaza on Pearl Street, and create a new neighborhood bike network of smooth, granite paths built into the cobblestone streets,"" -- Ydanis A. Rodriguez
Project: no bill number — infrastructure project. Status: completed. Committee: N/A. Key dates: reported and completed 2025-11-25; published 2025-11-25. The coverage quotes the project: "A $108M restoration transformed DUMBO with new cobblestones, upgraded sewers, a bike network and the new Pearl Street Plaza." No council members are listed in the source. DOT Commissioner Ydanis Rodriguez and DDC Acting Commissioner Eduardo del Valle are quoted on preservation and delivery. Safety note: the addition of a bike network and a pedestrian plaza reduces vehicle dominance, calms traffic, and encourages mode shift, improving population-level safety. Cobblestones can pose cycling hazards, but dedicated, smooth bikeways likely mitigate that risk.
