Afternoon on West 37th. A bike. A truck. Midtown bleeds again.

This Week
- Sep 8: At W 38th and 8th, a driver hit a woman crossing with the signal; police cited inattention and failure to yield. source
- Sep 8: At W 38th and 7th, a box truck going south hit a 16‑year‑old on a bike; police listed “traffic control disregarded” and “driver inexperience.” source

Midtown’s ledger
Since Jan 1, 2022, in Precinct 14, police recorded 7 people killed and 1,703 injured, including 45 serious injuries. source
People walking bear the brunt here: 4 pedestrians killed and 603 injured. People on bikes: 1 killed and 381 injured. source
Police cite driver inattention and failure to yield again and again. Recorded failures to yield produced injuries at the crosswalk. Recorded inattention did too. source
Injuries peak in the evening rush. Police counted 126 injuries around 4 PM and 122 around 5 PM. Nights turn deadly too, with deaths logged around 10 PM and 11 PM. source
Corners we already know
Avenue of the Americas racks up harm. West 42nd Street does too. Police list both among the worst in this precinct. source
Pedestrians die under bigger fronts. Police data on pedestrian crashes in this precinct show fatalities tied to drivers in SUVs and trucks. source
What the precinct can do now
Hit the patterns. Target the evening hours and the corners that keep hurting people. Enforce failure‑to‑yield at crosswalks on Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth Avenues. Focus trucks on safe routing and turning. Daylight the corners. Harden the turns. Give people a head start on the walk signal. source
Citywide fixes that reach this block
Lower speeds save lives. New York already has the tools on the table. A citywide 20 MPH default and electronic speed limiters for repeat camera violators would cut the risk borne by people walking and biking. See how to push those changes here.
“Families for Safe Streets is one of the most powerful advocacy forces I’ve ever seen in politics.” source
The line back to W 37th
A bike and a truck at day’s end. The numbers say it will happen again unless we act. Start with the corners we know. Then slow the whole city. Take one step now at Take Action.
