Ozone Park: Two Dead, Zero Answers, Endless Silence

Ozone Park (North): Jan 1, 2022 - Jun 4, 2025

The Numbers Do Not Lie

Two dead. Eighty-four injured. Zero serious injuries reported. That is the ledger for Ozone Park (North) in the past year alone. The dead were both pedestrians. One was 25. One was 65. Their names are not in the data. Their absence is.

Across three and a half years, the toll is steady. 453 crashes. 273 injuries. Two deaths. Most of the wounded are young. Some are old. The street does not care. NYC crash data

The Shape of Harm

SUVs killed both pedestrians. Cars and SUVs together account for every death. No bikes. No trucks. No mopeds. The danger is heavy and fast, and it comes on four wheels. In the last year, SUVs and cars caused 13 moderate or fatal injuries. The numbers do not flinch.

Leadership: Action or Waiting Game?

The city has tools. Sammy’s Law lets New York lower speed limits to 20 mph. The city can act. It has not acted here. Speed cameras work, but their future is always in question. The law that keeps them alive is up for renewal. Each delay is a risk. Each day without action is a day someone else may not come home.

No local leader has stood up in public to demand more for Ozone Park (North). No council member, no community board, no assembly rep. The silence is loud.

The Call

This is not fate. This is policy. Call your council member. Call the mayor. Demand a 20 mph speed limit. Demand speed cameras that never go dark. Demand streets that do not kill. Do not wait for another name to vanish into the numbers. Take action now.
