About these crash totals
Counts come from NYC police crash reports (NYC Open Data). We sum all crashes, injuries, and deaths for this area across the selected time window shown on the card. Injury severity follows the official definitions in the NYPD dataset.
- Crashes: number of police‑reported collisions (all road users).
- All injuries: total injured people in those crashes.
- Moderate / Serious: subcategories reported by officers (e.g., broken bones vs. life‑threatening trauma).
- Deaths: people who died due to a crash.
Notes: Police reports can be corrected after initial publication. Minor incidents without a police report are not included.

About this chart
We group pedestrian injuries and deaths by the vehicle type that struck them (as recorded in police reports). Use the dropdown to view totals, serious injuries, or deaths.
- Trucks/Buses, SUVs/Cars, Mopeds, and Bikes reflect the reporting categories in the crash dataset.
- Counts include people on foot only; crashes with no injured pedestrians are not shown here.
Notes: Police classification can change during investigations. Small categories may have year-to-year variance.
CloseAbout these numbers
These totals count vehicles with at least the shown number of camera‑issued speeding violations (school‑zone speed cameras) in any rolling 12‑month window in this district. Totals are summed from 2022 to the present for this geography.
- ≥ 6 (6+): advocates’ standard for repeat speeding offenders who should face escalating consequences.
- ≥ 16 (16+): threshold in the current edited bill awaiting State Senate action.
About this list
This ranks vehicles by the number of NYC school‑zone speed‑camera violations they received in the last 12 months anywhere in the city. The smaller note shows how many times the same plate was caught in this area in the last 90 days.
Camera violations are issued by NYC DOT’s program. Counts reflect issued tickets and may omit dismissed or pending cases. Plate text is shown verbatim as recorded.
CloseTwo left turns. Two bodies in the crosswalk.
Great Kills-Eltingville: Jan 1, 2022 - Nov 3, 2025
Just after 4 PM on Aug 24, at Wainwright Avenue and Sylvia Street, the driver of an SUV turned left and hit a 77‑year‑old woman in the crosswalk. Police recorded driver distraction at the scene (NYC Open Data).
This Week
- At Arthur Kill Road and Drumgoole Road West on Jul 28, a driver in an SUV turned left and hit a 79‑year‑old man who was crossing with the signal, according to police records (NYC Open Data).
- On Sep 23, at Miles Avenue and Daleham Street, a sedan and a pickup truck collided; a 30‑year‑old driver was injured (NYC Open Data).
- On Oct 11, at Drumgoole Road West and Arthur Kill Road, a BMW driver was hurt after a bus rear‑end crash (NYC Open Data).
Where the street takes its pound of flesh
Since 2022, Great Kills–Eltingville has logged 6 deaths and 643 injuries in 1,271 crashes (NYC Open Data). Pedestrians account for 116 of those injuries; one person on a bike was killed. Five people inside vehicles died (CrashCount analysis of NYC Open Data).
RICHMOND AVENUE leads the toll: 75 injuries, 2 serious injuries, and 1 death. ARTHUR KILL ROAD is close: 53 injuries, 2 serious injuries, and 1 death. HYLAN BOULEVARD shows 48 injuries and 2 deaths (CrashCount analysis of NYC Open Data).
The hurt peaks in the late afternoon. The 5 PM hour has the highest injury count in this area, followed by 3 PM and the evening rush (CrashCount analysis of NYC Open Data).
Left turns, bad sightlines, and weak corners
Police records on recent crashes name left turns and inattention. Both recent pedestrian hits here involved drivers turning left into people in the crosswalk (Aug 24 record; Jul 28 record).
At the same time, confusion on nearby Hylan Boulevard bus lanes has spawned crashes tied to drivers making right turns from the middle lane. “That’s one accident every four days,” said Borough President Vito Fossella about those turns (amNY).
Fix the corners. Daylight the crosswalks. Add leading pedestrian intervals. Harden left turns. Slow the approaches on Richmond Avenue, Arthur Kill Road, and Hylan Boulevard.
Who holds the line — and who doesn’t
Council Member Frank Morano sponsored a bill to force faster repairs of broken street furniture — the racks, shelters, and bollards that keep people on foot out of harm’s way (NYC Council – Int 1386‑2025). It’s a start.
State Senator Andrew Lanza voted no on renewing the city’s speed‑camera program for school zones (Streetsblog NYC). He also opposed the bill to put speed limiters on repeat speeders after it advanced, voting no on a later action of S 4045 (Open States). Assembly Member Mike Tannousis missed a key committee vote on the camera bill (CrashCount timeline; Streetsblog NYC).
The state has a bill ready: require intelligent speed assistance for drivers who pile up violations (S 4045). The city has the power to lower speed limits and expand safety cameras; officials say these tools save lives. “Our streets are safer than ever and the important work must continue,” said NYC DOT Commissioner Ydanis Rodriguez this year (see Briefing Notes sources).
Do the simple things now
- Target the hot corners on Richmond Avenue, Arthur Kill Road, and Hylan Boulevard with daylighting, hardened turns, and LPIs.
- Run focused enforcement at the evening peak.
- Back the speed‑limiter bill and a slower default speed.
The two left turns at Wainwright/Sylvia and Arthur Kill/Drumgoole were not rare. They were routine. That is the problem. Act now: take one step today.

Tannousis misses committee vote, absence allows unsafe bus regulation exemption to advance.▸Jun 16 - 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.

Lanza votes yes to weaken bus rules, increasing pedestrian and cyclist risk.▸Jun 11 - 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.

Lanza votes yes to weaken bus rules, increasing pedestrian and cyclist risk.▸Jun 11 - 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.
