Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in Precinct 109?
Precinct 109: Nighttime Toll on Queens Highways
Precinct 109: Jan 1, 2022 - Aug 16, 2025
The last months
On 2025-07-02 a 51-year-old driver died on the Cross Island Parkway at Bell Boulevard. On 2025-03-14 an SUV struck and killed a 78-year-old at Northern Boulevard and Parsons Boulevard. On 2024-06-10 a 63-year-old bicyclist died at Bowne Street and 41st Avenue after a left-turning SUV. On 2024-03-06 a 63-year-old moped rider died at College Point Boulevard and Blossom Avenue in a left-turn crash. On 2024-02-15 a 68-year-old woman was killed on Main Street near Reeves Avenue; the report lists unsafe speed. The record is public and long.
Since 2022: 23 dead, 90 seriously hurt, 3,424 injured, across 6,290 crashes, per NYC Open Data.
Where it keeps happening
Highways and arterials carry the blood. Cross Island Parkway is a top hotspot (1 death, 10 serious injuries). Whitestone Expressway is another (2 deaths, 7 serious injuries). Northern Boulevard also kills (2 deaths, 3 serious injuries). These corridors cut through the 109.
Nights are worst. The deadliest hour is 9 p.m. (4 deaths). Seven to ten p.m. account for a cluster of fatal crashes. Poor lighting and late-night speeding make a deadly mix. Targeted night enforcement and better lighting would help.
Cars and SUVs do most of the damage. City data show 696 car/SUV crashes and 10 related deaths; trucks and buses account for far fewer incidents.
Queens voices
“Joseph Lee terrorized other drivers as he purposefully drove the wrong way on a busy Queens highway,” Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz said. Lee told police he entered the Clearview Expressway “in the wrong direction because I wanted to hurt people and I felt ‘liberated’ by what I had done.” Those words hang over every ramp and merge.
What the 109 can do now
This is fixable. Run night speed details from 7–10 p.m. Flood Cross Island Parkway and Whitestone Expressway ramps with targeted enforcement. Treat repeat hotspots as repeat problems: log them and return. Add Leading Pedestrian Intervals and daylighting at failure-to-yield corners like Bowne St & 41st Ave and College Point Blvd & Blossom Ave. Harden left turns. Use traffic-calming on arterial approaches.
City Hall and Albany — the bigger fixes
Local crashes point to citywide choices. New York must set a safer default: lower the citywide speed limit to 20 mph. Albany and the Legislature should require intelligent speed-assistance devices for habitual speeders. Use Sammy’s Law and the Stop Super Speeders proposals to push these changes; they are concrete, enforceable remedies. For ways to act locally and at the state level, see Take Action.
No more names on a spreadsheet. Call your council member, your state reps, and the mayor. Show up at hearings. Demand 20 mph and limits on repeat speeders. Don’t let tonight be the worst hour again.
