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.

Right turn, crosswalk, death at 30th Street
Queensbridge-Ravenswood-Dutch Kills: Jan 1, 2022 - Sep 5, 2025
Just before 1 PM on Aug 31, at 30 St and 39 Ave, a 38‑year‑old woman in a marked crosswalk was hit by a right‑turning SUV. Police coded the cause as failure to yield. She died (NYC Open Data).
This Week
- Aug 25: At Queens Plaza N and 21 St, a pedestrian crossing with the signal was struck. The driver disregarded traffic control and failed to yield, police records say (NYC Open Data).
 - Aug 8: A pedestrian was injured by a sedan; police cited driver distraction and limited view (NYC Open Data).
 - July 16: A 22‑year‑old on a bike was hit by an SUV and ejected (NYC Open Data).
 
They were one of 5 people killed on the streets of Queensbridge–Ravenswood–Dutch Kills since 2022, alongside 657 injuries in 1,135 crashes (NYC Open Data). Year to date, this area has 219 crashes, 1 death, and 140 injuries, little changed from the same period last year (224, 1, 149) (NYC Open Data).
Hylan at Bay it is not. But this corner bleeds all the same.
Street corners that don’t forgive
- 21 St is a hotspot, with 25 injuries and 2 serious injuries logged at one location alone (NYC Open Data).
 - Deaths are recorded at 40 Avenue, 34 Avenue, and 30 St in this small map square (NYC Open Data).
 
Failure to yield keeps showing up. The Aug 31 death: failure to yield on a right turn in a marked crosswalk. The Aug 25 injury at Queens Plaza N: a pedestrian crossing with the signal, struck by a driver who ignored traffic control and failed to yield (NYC Open Data).
The hours we break people
Crashes pile up in the day’s crush. Injuries peak about 2 PM with 49 cases, and stay high through the evening rush — 45 around 5 PM (NYC Open Data). Night brings its own hurt, with serious injuries logged around 9 PM and 10 PM. The clock does not spare anyone.
“We need universal daylighting.”
That’s what Council Member Julie Won said: “Universal daylighting and hardening at intersections will keep all New Yorkers safe whether they are driving, walking or biking” (AMNY). She has pushed a bill to clear parking at crosswalks citywide, a measure her caucus pressed this summer (City & State NY).
On our blocks, the need is plain. A woman in a crosswalk. A right turn. A body left still.
Who is moving the levers
- State Senator Kristen Gonzalez co‑sponsors the bill to require speed limiters for repeat violators and voted yes in committee (Open States). She also voted yes to extend school speed‑zone protections (Open States).
 - Assembly Member Zohran Mamdani was excused on a key school speed‑zone vote this June, according to the record (Open States).
 - Council Member Julie Won is on the record backing universal daylighting to clear sight lines at corners (AMNY; City & State NY).
 
What will stop the next right turn
- Clear the corners: pass universal daylighting to remove parking at crosswalks and harden turns on 21 St, 39 Ave, 34 Ave, and 40 Ave — the sites with the worst harm in this area (NYC Open Data; AMNY).
 - Give people a head start: deploy leading pedestrian intervals and no‑turn‑on‑red at the 21 St and Queens Plaza N junction and other high‑injury corners identified above (targets from NYC Open Data).
 - Curb the worst drivers: move the Senate’s speed‑limiter bill, S 4045, and keep school‑zone protections in force, S 8344.
 
Citywide, slower speeds and fewer blind corners save lives. The woman at 30 St never got a second chance.
Take one step now. Tell City Hall and Albany to act. Start here.

Cabán prime sponsors bike parking station expansion, boosting overall street safety▸Sep 10 - Int. 1375 orders DOT to install 5,000 bike parking stations over five years. 1,000 a year. 400 on commercial blocks. It cuts sidewalk clutter, houses bikes off the curb, and strengthens safety for riders and pedestrians.
Int. No. 1375 is at SPONSORSHIP. Introduced 02/26/2025; event date 2025-09-10. Committee: Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure. The measure, titled "A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to expanding the bicycle parking station program," would require DOT to install at least 5,000 bicycle parking stations over five years (1,000 per year; at least 400 on commercial blocks), post locations online, and deliver a one-time report within six years. Tiffany Cabán is the primary sponsor; Lincoln Restler and Gale A. Brewer are co-sponsors. Safety analysts note that expanding secure, well-sited bike parking—especially on commercial blocks and in underserved areas—supports mode shift, reduces sidewalk clutter from ad hoc parking, and improves end-of-trip safety; impact will be strongest if DOT prioritizes curb/roadway placement over sidewalks to protect pedestrian space.

It cuts sidewalk clutter, houses bikes off the curb, and strengthens safety for riders and pedestrians.
Int. No. 1375 is at SPONSORSHIP. Introduced 02/26/2025; event date 2025-09-10. Committee: Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure. The measure, titled "A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to expanding the bicycle parking station program," would require DOT to install at least 5,000 bicycle parking stations over five years (1,000 per year; at least 400 on commercial blocks), post locations online, and deliver a one-time report within six years.

Safety analysts note that expanding secure, well-sited bike parking—especially on commercial blocks and in underserved areas—supports mode shift, reduces sidewalk clutter from ad hoc parking, and improves end-of-trip safety; impact will be strongest if DOT prioritizes curb/roadway placement over sidewalks to protect pedestrian space.

Tiffany Cabán Backs Safety‑Boosting 31st Street Protected Bike Lanes▸Aug 19 - Local officials backed DOT's protected bike lanes under the elevated 31st Street tracks. A New York State Supreme Court issued a temporary injunction that paused the plan. Leaders urged the city to move the separated lanes forward to protect cyclists and pedestrians.
Bill/file number: none. Status: press release; plan supported by local officials but temporarily blocked by a New York State Supreme Court temporary injunction. Committee: N/A. Key date: 2025-08-19 (press statement). The matter titled "Elected officials outline continued support for 31st Street protected bike lanes in Astoria" urges DOT to install protected lanes beneath the elevated tracks.

Key date: 2025-08-19 (press statement). The matter titled "Elected officials outline continued support for 31st Street protected bike lanes in Astoria" urges DOT to install protected lanes beneath the elevated tracks. Council Member Tiffany Cabán and Assembly Member Jessica González-Rojas publicly backed the project. A state senator also expressed support (name withheld). Safety analysts note protected bike lanes under elevated tracks expand safe cycling infrastructure, reduce motor-vehicle-bicycle conflicts, and support mode shift to active travel; benefits depend on continuous, well-lit, accessible design to protect equity and nighttime safety.

Cabán prime sponsors bike parking station expansion, boosting overall street safety▸Sep 10 - Int. 1375 orders DOT to install 5,000 bike parking stations over five years. 1,000 a year. 400 on commercial blocks. It cuts sidewalk clutter, houses bikes off the curb, and strengthens safety for riders and pedestrians.
Int. No. 1375 is at SPONSORSHIP. Introduced 02/26/2025; event date 2025-09-10. Committee: Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure. The measure, titled "A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to expanding the bicycle parking station program," would require DOT to install at least 5,000 bicycle parking stations over five years (1,000 per year; at least 400 on commercial blocks), post locations online, and deliver a one-time report within six years. Tiffany Cabán is the primary sponsor; Lincoln Restler and Gale A. Brewer are co-sponsors. Safety analysts note that expanding secure, well-sited bike parking—especially on commercial blocks and in underserved areas—supports mode shift, reduces sidewalk clutter from ad hoc parking, and improves end-of-trip safety; impact will be strongest if DOT prioritizes curb/roadway placement over sidewalks to protect pedestrian space.

It cuts sidewalk clutter, houses bikes off the curb, and strengthens safety for riders and pedestrians.
Int. No. 1375 is at SPONSORSHIP. Introduced 02/26/2025; event date 2025-09-10. Committee: Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure. The measure, titled "A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to expanding the bicycle parking station program," would require DOT to install at least 5,000 bicycle parking stations over five years (1,000 per year; at least 400 on commercial blocks), post locations online, and deliver a one-time report within six years. Tiffany Cabán is the primary sponsor; Lincoln Restler and Gale A. Brewer are co-sponsors. Safety analysts note that expanding secure, well-sited bike parking—especially on commercial blocks and in underserved areas—supports mode shift, reduces sidewalk clutter from ad hoc parking, and improves end-of-trip safety; impact will be strongest if DOT prioritizes curb/roadway placement over sidewalks to protect pedestrian space.

Tiffany Cabán Backs Safety‑Boosting 31st Street Protected Bike Lanes▸Aug 19 - Local officials backed DOT's protected bike lanes under the elevated 31st Street tracks. A New York State Supreme Court issued a temporary injunction that paused the plan. Leaders urged the city to move the separated lanes forward to protect cyclists and pedestrians.
Bill/file number: none. Status: press release; plan supported by local officials but temporarily blocked by a New York State Supreme Court temporary injunction. Committee: N/A. Key date: 2025-08-19 (press statement). The matter titled "Elected officials outline continued support for 31st Street protected bike lanes in Astoria" urges DOT to install protected lanes beneath the elevated tracks.

Cabán prime sponsors bike parking station expansion, boosting overall street safety▸Sep 10 - Int. 1375 orders DOT to install 5,000 bike parking stations over five years. 1,000 a year. 400 on commercial blocks. It cuts sidewalk clutter, houses bikes off the curb, and strengthens safety for riders and pedestrians.
Int. No. 1375 is at SPONSORSHIP. Introduced 02/26/2025; event date 2025-09-10. Committee: Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure. The measure, titled "A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to expanding the bicycle parking station program," would require DOT to install at least 5,000 bicycle parking stations over five years (1,000 per year; at least 400 on commercial blocks), post locations online, and deliver a one-time report within six years. Tiffany Cabán is the primary sponsor; Lincoln Restler and Gale A. Brewer are co-sponsors. Safety analysts note that expanding secure, well-sited bike parking—especially on commercial blocks and in underserved areas—supports mode shift, reduces sidewalk clutter from ad hoc parking, and improves end-of-trip safety; impact will be strongest if DOT prioritizes curb/roadway placement over sidewalks to protect pedestrian space.

A flatbed truck traveling north on 21st Street struck a 36-year-old pedestrian at Queens Plaza North. The pedestrian was crossing with the signal at an intersection and suffered an arm abrasion. According to the police report, the contributing factors were “Failure to Yield Right-of-Way” and “Traffic Control Disregarded.” The listed driver errors show the truck did not yield and disregarded traffic control while going straight ahead, with impact at the right front bumper.

Tiffany Cabán Backs Safety‑Boosting 31st Street Protected Bike Lanes▸Aug 19 - Local officials backed DOT's protected bike lanes under the elevated 31st Street tracks. A New York State Supreme Court issued a temporary injunction that paused the plan. Leaders urged the city to move the separated lanes forward to protect cyclists and pedestrians.
Bill/file number: none. Status: press release; plan supported by local officials but temporarily blocked by a New York State Supreme Court temporary injunction. Committee: N/A. Key date: 2025-08-19 (press statement). The matter titled "Elected officials outline continued support for 31st Street protected bike lanes in Astoria" urges DOT to install protected lanes beneath the elevated tracks. Council Member Tiffany Cabán and Assembly Member Jessica González-Rojas publicly backed the project. A state senator also expressed support (name withheld). Safety analysts note protected bike lanes under elevated tracks expand safe cycling infrastructure, reduce motor-vehicle-bicycle conflicts, and support mode shift to active travel; benefits depend on continuous, well-lit, accessible design to protect equity and nighttime safety.
