A door on 108th Street
Precinct 115: Jan 1, 2022 - Nov 1, 2025
Just before 6:40 PM on Oct 27, 2025, on 108th Street at 38th Avenue, a 26-year-old on a Citi e-bike hit a parked BMW’s left-side doors and was ejected. He died at the scene, according to city data (NYC Open Data).
He was one of 20 people killed on streets in Precinct 115 since 2022 (period stats). The toll includes eight people walking and two people on bikes (mode split).
This crash was also reported by local outlets (Daily News; Streetsblog).
This Week
- Oct 27: A bicyclist was killed after a crash with a parked car’s doors at 108th Street and 38th Avenue (NYC Open Data).
- Oct 22: A driver turning right hit a 21-year-old on a bike at Northern Boulevard and 87th Street; he was injured (NYC Open Data).
- Oct 21: A driver hit a man on a motorized device at 32nd Avenue and 76th Street; police recorded distraction and disregarding traffic control (NYC Open Data).
- Oct 14: A driver going straight injured a 63-year-old man walking at Astoria Boulevard and 82nd Street (NYC Open Data).
The pattern on these blocks
Since 2022, police recorded deadly and injurious crashes clustering on corridors like 37th Avenue and Northern Boulevard, and on the Grand Central Parkway (data). Failure to yield and disregarding signals appear again and again in the reports (contributing factors).
The harm peaks in the evening. The hours around 5–6 PM show multiple deaths in this precinct’s records (hourly distribution). People on foot were hurt in at least 532 crashes; people on bikes in at least 284 (mode split).
This year vs. last
Year to date, crashes in this precinct fell from 1,351 to 1,163. Recorded injuries fell from 847 to 731. Deaths fell from 5 to 2. But serious injuries rose from 6 to 15 (period comparison). Fewer crashes does not mean less trauma.
Fix the corners where people die
Start where the bodies fall. Harden turns and add daylighting at 37th Avenue and across Northern Boulevard. Put leading pedestrian intervals and automated failure‑to‑yield enforcement at the worst intersections. Protect bike lanes where people actually ride. Aim enforcement at the evening hours when the blood runs most in these logs (hotspots and hours).
The citywide levers are real
Lower the default speed. Use the authority the city now has to bring residential limits to 20 MPH. And stop the repeat offenders who rack up camera tickets by requiring intelligent speed limiters after a documented threshold. Both steps are laid out here with how to push them forward (Take Action).
Council Member Shekar Krishnan, Assembly Member Steven Raga, and State Senator Toby Stavisky represent these blocks. The tools exist. The death on 108th Street shows the cost of waiting.
End it where it began: a man on a bike, a car door, and a street that did not forgive. Start today: take action.
