Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in Hollis?
Hollis Bleeds While City Waits: Slow the Cars, Save a Life
Hollis: Jan 1, 2022 - Jun 4, 2025
The Numbers Don’t Lie
Three dead. Six seriously hurt. In Hollis, from 2022 to June 2025, the street keeps its own count. There were 706 crashes. 443 people injured. These are bodies broken, lives cut short, families left waiting for someone who will not come home. NYC Open Data
Pedestrians and the old take the worst of it. A 68-year-old man, struck and killed crossing Hillside Avenue. A 71-year-old, left bleeding at an intersection. A 60-year-old woman, unconscious in a crosswalk. A 19-year-old, dead on 90th Avenue. The street does not care about age. It takes what it wants.
What’s Been Done — And What Hasn’t
The city talks about Vision Zero. They say every death is one too many. They say they are redesigning intersections, adding cameras, lowering speed limits. But in Hollis, the pace is slow. The deaths keep coming. The numbers do not fall fast enough.
Local leaders have the power. Sammy’s Law lets the city set speed limits at 20 mph. The law is there. The will is not. Cameras that catch speeders and red-light runners work, but they need to be renewed. Each delay is another risk. Each silence is another name for the list.
Who Pays the Price
Cars and SUVs do most of the damage. They strike, they crush, they kill. Trucks, mopeds, and bikes are in the mix, but the weight of the harm falls from behind a steering wheel. The victims are walkers, riders, the young, the old. The drivers keep driving. The rest are left behind.
What Comes Next
This is not fate. These are not accidents. They are choices. Streets can be made safe. Laws can be enforced. Leaders can act. But only if pushed. Only if the silence is broken.
Call your council member. Call the mayor. Demand a 20 mph speed limit. Demand cameras that never go dark. Demand streets where children and elders can cross and live.
Do not wait for another name on the list. Act now.

Bill S 7785, titled 'Relates to bus operation-related traffic regulations,' passed the Senate and Assembly in June 2025. The measure, sponsored by Senator Jamaal Bailey, excludes violations in cooperative housing developments with at least 10,000 Mitchell-Lama units from bus operation traffic regulations. The bill advanced through committee and received broad support in both chambers. By exempting these large complexes, the law weakens traffic enforcement where thousands live. This move increases risk to pedestrians and cyclists, stripping away protections that save lives. Vulnerable road users lose another layer of safety in dense city streets.

Senate passed S 7785. The bill carves out large Mitchell-Lama housing from bus traffic rules. Lawmakers voted yes. The carve-out weakens enforcement. Streets grow less safe for people on foot and bike.
Bill S 7785, titled 'Relates to bus operation-related traffic regulations,' passed the Senate and Assembly in June 2025. The measure, sponsored by Senator Jamaal Bailey, excludes violations in cooperative housing developments with at least 10,000 Mitchell-Lama units from bus operation traffic regulations. The bill advanced through committee and received broad support in both chambers. By exempting these large complexes, the law weakens traffic enforcement where thousands live. This move increases risk to pedestrians and cyclists, stripping away protections that save lives. Vulnerable road users lose another layer of safety in dense city streets.
