Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in Precinct 13?

Preventable Speeding in Precinct 13 School Zones

(since 2022)
Precinct 13: Four crashes in five days, same old story on Sixth Avenue

Precinct 13: Four crashes in five days, same old story on Sixth Avenue

Precinct 13: Jan 1, 2022 - Nov 21, 2025

Around midday on Nov 15, at W 16 St and Sixth Avenue, a taxi driver and a person on a bike collided. He was 31. Police recorded a serious injury to his arm and hand (NYC Open Data).

In this precinct since 2022, there have been 3,114 crashes, 11 people killed, and 1,672 injured, including 33 serious injuries (NYC Open Data). Cyclists account for 4 deaths and 465 injuries; people walking, 5 deaths and 439 injuries (NYC Open Data). The toll doesn’t let up.

This Week

  • Nov 13: At an East 30th Street intersection, a taxi driver going straight hit a person walking; she was hurt (NYC Open Data).
  • Nov 13: W 25 St and Sixth Avenue, an SUV driver and a 39‑year‑old man on a bike collided; he was hurt (NYC Open Data).
  • Nov 10: Park Ave S at E 26 St, a taxi driver and a 66‑year‑old woman on a bike collided; she was hurt (NYC Open Data).

Where it breaks, again and again

Police coded inattention/distraction in 55 injuries, failure to yield in 26, and disregarded traffic control in 16—each one a person struck because someone kept going when they shouldn’t have (NYC Open Data).

Hot spots repeat. FDR Drive leads the list for harm. So do 1st Avenue, 3rd Avenue, and Sixth Avenue—where the crashes above landed (NYC Open Data). Deaths peak around midday and early evening here: 3 deaths around noon and 2 at 7 PM since 2022 (NYC Open Data).

What Precinct 13 can hit now

  • Harden turns and add leading pedestrian intervals at repeat intersections on Sixth Avenue, 1st Avenue, and 3rd Avenue. Daylight corners. Slow the turns that maim people on foot and on bikes.
  • Targeted failure‑to‑yield and no‑turn‑on‑red enforcement at these same corners, at noon and again in the evening, when deaths here cluster.
  • Focus on taxi and SUV driver behavior where the data shows recurring bike and pedestrian harm along Sixth Avenue and Park Ave S.

City rules that would save lives here

Lower speeds save lives. A citywide default of 20 MPH and speed limiters for repeat speeders are ready to go. The proposals are on the table; the city and Albany have the tools. Our readers can push them to use them. See how and speak up here.

Who’s on the hook

This is Precinct 13. Your local officials include Council Member Erik D. Bottcher, Assembly Member Deborah Glick, and State Senator Liz Krueger. Our record does not show whether they have sponsored a speed‑limiter bill for repeat offenders. The harm is on their streets. Ask them where they stand.

The cyclist at W 16 St is not an outlier. He is the pattern. If we slow the cars and harden the turns, he gets home.
