CloseBeach 20, one turn, one body: Precinct 101’s ledger since 2022
Precinct 101: Jan 1, 2022 - Oct 14, 2025
Late afternoon on Aug 12, 2025, at Mott Ave and Beach 20 St, the driver of a 2021 Lexus sedan turned left and hit a 38-year-old woman in the intersection, police records show (NYC Open Data).
This Week
- Oct 7, 2025: On Rockaway Fwy at Beach 35 St, multiple SUVs crashed; a 36-year-old passenger was injured (NYC Open Data).
- Sep 27, 2025: On Seagirt Blvd at Beach 9 St, two sedans collided; a 23-year-old passenger was injured (NYC Open Data).
- Jul 28, 2025: At Brookhaven Ave and Beach 20 St, a driver in an SUV turned left and collided with an 18-year-old on a bike turning right; he was injured (NYC Open Data).
The toll on these blocks
Since 2022 in Precinct 101, police logged 2,159 crashes, with 7 people killed and 943 injured (NYC Open Data). Pedestrians account for 5 of the 7 deaths and 240 injuries here; people on bikes were hurt 54 times (NYC Open Data).
On Beach Channel Drive, the count is stark: 3 deaths and 127 injuries tied to crashes along that corridor. Seagirt Boulevard adds 1 death and 34 injuries (NYC Open Data).
The danger does not sleep. Police recorded 86 injuries around 4 PM, with deaths spread from morning into night, including 7 AM, 9 AM, mid‑afternoon, early evening, and 8 PM (NYC Open Data).
What the record says drivers did
In this precinct, police cite named driver actions again and again: inattention or distraction, failure to yield, and unsafe speed—each tied to injuries in these crashes (NYC Open Data).
At Mott and Beach 20 on Aug 12, the driver made a left and hit a person walking at the intersection. At Brookhaven and Beach 20 on Jul 28, a driver in an SUV turned left into a person on a bike who was turning right (NYC Open Data). These turns are not rare here. They repeat.
Fix the corners that keep breaking people
Start where the bodies stack up: Beach Channel Drive and Seagirt Boulevard. Harden left turns; add daylighting at crosswalks; deploy leading pedestrian intervals; and target enforcement at the same hours the injuries spike. These are basic tools. Use them where the data points.
The precinct can focus enforcement on failure to yield at these corners and on afternoon speeding. The city can redesign the turns that keep maiming people walking and biking (NYC Open Data).
The policy lever that slows the hit
Citywide, the path is clear: lower speeds and stop repeat speeders. New York has the tools on the table. A citywide 20 MPH default and required speed limiters for drivers who rack up camera or points violations are ready to use. The case is simple in this precinct: five pedestrians killed, 240 more injured since 2022. Slower cars mean more people make it home (NYC Open Data).
Council District 31, Assembly District 23, and Senate District 10 cover these blocks. The record we reviewed shows the harm. The next move is theirs.
Take one step now. Tell your officials to use the tools and fix these corners. Start here.
