Speed Kills. Silence Kills. NYC’s Parkways Are a Crime Scene.
Flushing Meadows-Corona Park: Jan 1, 2022 - Jun 4, 2025
The Bodies in the Road
A man steps onto the Van Wyck. A truck waits, a black SUV moves south. The man does not make it across. He is 41. The report says “crush injuries.” He is dead. NYC Open Data.
A woman, 33, is found on the Grand Central Parkway. An SUV strikes her. She dies at the scene. The record lists her as “Apparent Death.” No one else is listed as hurt. The road is quiet again. The city moves on.
In the last twelve months, 417 crashes tore through this park. One person died. Two were left with injuries so severe they may never walk the same. 349 more were hurt. The numbers do not bleed, but the people do.
The Silence of Leaders
The city says it is working. The mayor calls traffic violence a crime. The police promise to be “highly visible on New York City roadways… to deter unsafe driving and, when necessary, to take appropriate enforcement action” said Commissioner Caban. Cameras catch speeders. Laws are passed. But the speed limit on the parkways stays high. The trucks keep rolling. The SUVs do not slow.
A firefighter runs a red light in Queens. He is drunk, high, and driving 83 in a 25. He kills a man with the right-of-way. The judge sets bail. The family is left with nothing but anger. “The victim had the right-of-way, and Pena ran a steady red light, prosecutors say” NY Daily News.
What Comes Next
The city has the power to lower speed limits. It has the power to harden crossings. It has the power to keep cameras running. It has not used these powers fast enough. Every day of delay is another day of risk. Every crash is a choice made by those who could have acted.
Call your council member. Call the mayor. Demand a 20 mph limit. Demand cameras that never sleep. Demand action before another body is left on the road.
