Wrong way. Left turn. No second chances.
New York City: Jan 1, 2022 - Nov 8, 2025
Just before 10 PM on Oct 31, a driver in a 2017 Infiniti SUV hit and killed a 46-year-old man on the Grand Central Parkway. Police recorded he was on foot, not at an intersection, when the driver going straight struck him (NYC Open Data).
They were one of 1,170 people killed on city streets since Jan 1, 2022 (NYC Open Data). This year, deaths stand at 246, down from 257 at this point last year (NYC Open Data). The pace eases. The funerals do not.
“This week a commercial van driver went the wrong way on Morton Street and killed a woman in her 20s in the crosswalk,” Streetsblog reported.
This Week
- Oct 29, 18 Ave at 49 St: an unlicensed driver in a 2018 Ford SUV hit and killed an 84-year-old man; police recorded driver inattention (NYC Open Data).
- Oct 27, 108 St at 38 Ave: a 26-year-old man on a Citi e‑bike was ejected and killed after striking the left side doors of a parked BMW sedan (NYC Open Data).
- Oct 24, Park Ave at E 63 St: police recorded driver inattention as a Toyota sedan driver turned left and hit a man who was crossing with the signal; the crash severity was fatal in city data (NYC Open Data).
The pattern doesn’t let up
Across 2022 through today, city data count those 1,170 dead, 206,495 injured, and 362,482 crashes (NYC Open Data). In the past 12 months alone, another 281 people were killed (NYC Open Data).
This is not one corner. It is Queens on the Grand Central Parkway, Brooklyn at 18th Avenue and 49th Street, Manhattan at Park and 63rd, and the West Village on Morton Street. Different nights. Same result.
We know what slows the killing
Albany renewed 24‑hour school‑zone speed cameras through 2030, and the city is adding more red‑light cameras. City leaders say these tools cut speeding and reduce crashes; the program is active now (Take Action).
Lower speeds save lives. NYC now has the power to set more 20 MPH streets under Sammy’s Law. The city has begun to lower limits, but the default remains higher. A citywide 20 MPH default is on the table (Take Action).
A small group of repeat speeders does outsized harm. The Stop Super Speeders Act (S4045C/A2299C) would force the worst offenders—drivers with 11 DMV points in 18 months or 16 camera tickets in a year—to use intelligent speed limiters. That would keep their cars within 5 MPH of the limit (Take Action).
The next move is obvious
Set safer default speeds. Rein in the repeat offenders. The list of names will shrink only when the speed does. Start here: tell city and state officials to act.
