Precinct 115 knows the map
The records point to the same acts again and again: failure to yield, running signals, inattention. The worst pain lands on people walking and biking. In this precinct since 2022, police list 8 people walking and 1 person on a bike killed, with hundreds more injured (NYC Open Data).
Fix the turns. Slow the cars.
Simple tools exist: daylighting at corners, hardened turns, longer leading pedestrian intervals, protected bike lanes where injuries stack up, and targeted enforcement at repeat hotspots like 37 Avenue and Northern Boulevard. Evening operations should match the harm curve.
Citywide tools exist too. Lower the default speed limit and rein in repeat speeders. The Stop Super Speeders Act (S4045C/A2299C) would force habitual offenders to use speed limiters; advocates say it targets the small group that does outsized harm. “When regular people band together and demand safer streets, speed limits get lowered, laws get passed, streets get redesigned, and lives are saved,” said Families for Safe Streets (Families for Safe Streets).
Your local officials here are Council Member Shekar Krishnan, Assembly Member Steven Raga, and State Senator Toby Stavisky. The record provided does not show whether they back the Stop Super Speeders Act. What gives?
Lower speeds. Stop the repeats. Start where the bodies fall: the corners of this precinct. Act now at /take_action/.
