No More Blood on Northern Boulevard
Flushing-Willets Point: Jan 1, 2022 - Jun 17, 2025
The Numbers Do Not Lie
Six people killed. Twenty-seven left with serious injuries. In the past twelve months, 565 crashes tore through Flushing-Willets Point. Children, elders, cyclists, and pedestrians—no one is spared. Two deaths were people over 75. One was a child under 18. These are not just numbers. They are families changed forever.
The Latest Crashes: No Safe Passage
A 78-year-old woman tried to cross Northern Boulevard. She never made it. A driver in a dark minivan hit her and kept going. Police said, “A 78-year-old woman was fatally struck by a hit-and-run driver as she crossed a Queens street.” No arrest. No justice. Just another name lost to the street.
Two days earlier, a man and a child were hit at 32nd Avenue and 138th Street. The man was pinned under the car. The child, between eight and ten, was also hurt. Police found them both on the pavement. “Police responded…and found an adult man pinned under a vehicle.” The driver stayed. The pain did not.
What Has Been Done—And What Has Not
Speed kills. Albany passed Sammy’s Law. The city can now lower speed limits to 20 mph. But the limit on these streets is still higher. Cameras catch speeders, but only where they are allowed. The city has built more crosswalks and bike lanes, but the blood keeps flowing. The council and mayor have the power to slow the cars. They have not used it.
The Call That Cannot Wait
Every day of delay is another day of risk. Call your council member. Call the mayor. Demand a 20 mph limit. Demand more cameras. Demand streets where a child can cross and live. Take action now.
