Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in Bayside?
Bayside Bleeds While Leaders Stall—How Many More Lives?
Bayside: Jan 1, 2022 - Aug 4, 2025
Another Year, Another Toll
In Bayside, the numbers do not lie. Four dead. Seven seriously hurt. Over 1,100 crashes since 2022. The bodies are not numbers. They are neighbors, parents, children. Last month, a 74-year-old man was killed crossing Northern Boulevard. The SUV kept going straight. He did not. NYC Open Data
Just months before, a 65-year-old man was crushed on the Long Island Expressway. He was not in the roadway. Still, the trucks found him. NYC Open Data
The violence is steady. The pain is quiet.
Who Pays the Price
Pedestrians and older adults take the brunt. In the last year alone, two people over 65 killed, one under 18 lost, four left with life-changing wounds. The streets do not forgive age or caution. SUVs and cars do most of the damage—74 pedestrian injuries and deaths from cars and SUVs, four from trucks and buses, two from bikes. NYC Open Data
A mother’s words echo after her daughter’s death: “I wish they would never have given him that car. I wish they would never think about giving him that car—because if they didn’t give him that car, my daughter would still be here right now.” Keisha Francis, Gothamist
What Leaders Have Done—And Not Done
Senator John Liu voted yes on the Stop Super Speeders Act, a bill to force repeat dangerous drivers to install speed-limiting devices. Stop Super Speeders Act He also backed the extension of school speed zones. school speed zones Council Member Vickie Paladino cheered new car-free school streets at PS 129, calling it a win for safe pick-up and play. car-free school streets
But the carnage continues. One law, one ribbon-cutting, does not end the blood on the asphalt.
The Call
This is not fate. It is policy. Every crash is a choice made upstream. Call your council member. Call your senator. Demand a 20 mph speed limit. Demand real enforcement against repeat offenders. Demand streets where children and elders can walk without fear.
Do not wait for another name on the list. Take action now.

John Liu Supports Safety Boosting Lower DWI Threshold Bill▸City officials push Albany to drop the drunk driving threshold from 0.08 to 0.05 percent. The bill lingers in committee. Drunk drivers killed 42 New Yorkers last year. Messaging still centers on not drinking, not on not driving.
Senate Bill sponsored by John Liu and Assembly Member Jo Anne Simon seeks to lower New York’s DWI blood-alcohol threshold from 0.08% to 0.05%. The bill, re-submitted in the last legislative session, remains stuck in committee. At a December 22, 2022 press conference, DOT Deputy Commissioner Margaret Forgione said, 'There is not really a safe level of drinking and driving, but the law suggests there is.' Commissioner Ydanis Rodriguez and NYPD’s Kim Royster also spoke, focusing on enforcement and urging drivers to avoid drinking before driving. Advocates like Alisa McMorris of Mothers Against Drunk Driving called for stronger messaging: 'We want people to make choices before they leave their home.' Despite evidence that lowering the threshold could cut traffic deaths by 10%, city messaging still stops short of telling people not to drive to events where they plan to drink.

Liu Supports Safety Boosting Bill Lowering Drunk Driving Limit▸City and state officials want to drop the legal blood-alcohol limit to 0.05. The bill sits in committee. Drunk drivers killed 42 people last year. Officials talk tough but focus on drinking, not driving. The danger remains for those outside the car.
Senate and Assembly bill, sponsored by Sen. John Liu and Assembly Member Jo Anne Simon, seeks to lower New York’s drunk driving threshold from 0.08 to 0.05 percent BAC. Announced at a December 22, 2022 press conference, the bill has stalled in committee for years. The matter aims to redefine DWI: 'driving while intoxicated would be defined as anything above a blood-alcohol content of 0.05 percent.' Simon and Liu back the measure; city DOT and NYPD leaders joined them. DOT Deputy Commissioner Margaret Forgione said, 'There is not really a safe level of drinking and driving, but the law suggests there is.' In 2021, 42 people died in drunk driving crashes, up 60 percent from previous years. Officials promise enforcement and education, but their messaging targets drinking, not the act of driving. Vulnerable road users remain at risk while the law lags.

City and state officials want to drop the legal blood-alcohol limit to 0.05. The bill sits in committee. Drunk drivers killed 42 people last year. Officials talk tough but focus on drinking, not driving. The danger remains for those outside the car.
Senate and Assembly bill, sponsored by Sen. John Liu and Assembly Member Jo Anne Simon, seeks to lower New York’s drunk driving threshold from 0.08 to 0.05 percent BAC. Announced at a December 22, 2022 press conference, the bill has stalled in committee for years. The matter aims to redefine DWI: 'driving while intoxicated would be defined as anything above a blood-alcohol content of 0.05 percent.' Simon and Liu back the measure; city DOT and NYPD leaders joined them. DOT Deputy Commissioner Margaret Forgione said, 'There is not really a safe level of drinking and driving, but the law suggests there is.' In 2021, 42 people died in drunk driving crashes, up 60 percent from previous years. Officials promise enforcement and education, but their messaging targets drinking, not the act of driving. Vulnerable road users remain at risk while the law lags.

John Liu Supports Safety Boosting Pedestrian Infrastructure Improvements▸A 73-year-old man died under the wheels of a Ford van at a notorious Staten Island crossing. The driver walked free. The intersection lacked a proper pedestrian signal. Forest Avenue is a killing ground. City leaders have failed to act. Blood stains the street.
On November 21, 2022, Yingqui Liu, age 73, was struck and killed by a turning van at South Avenue and Forest Avenue, Staten Island. No charges were filed against the driver. The intersection, notorious for crashes, lacked a pedestrian signal on the western crosswalk. According to city statistics, Forest Avenue saw 60 crashes and 33 injuries in one year, with three deaths since 2019. Rose Uscianowski of Transportation Alternatives called the killing 'heartbreaking and outrageous,' demanding safe pedestrian and bike access between the Bayonne and Goethals bridges. She said, 'Crossing the street should not be a death sentence.' At least 99 pedestrians have died on city streets this year, making it the second deadliest since Vision Zero began. Forty-two seniors have been killed, three-quarters while walking. The city has not improved this deadly stretch.

A 8936Liu votes yes to require safer complete street designs, improving safety.▸Albany passed A 8936. Cities get more state cash if they build complete streets. Lawmakers want safer roads. The bill sailed through both chambers. Money now follows safety.
Bill A 8936, titled 'Relates to complete street design features and funding of construction and improvements at a municipalities' expense,' passed the Assembly on May 23, 2022, and the Senate on June 1, 2022. The bill boosts state funding for transportation projects when municipalities add complete street features. Assemblymember Fahy led as primary sponsor, joined by Hunter, Seawright, Woerner, and others. The Assembly and Senate both voted yes, with broad support. The law aims to push cities to design streets for everyone—pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers—by tying state dollars to safety upgrades.
