Five Dead, Countless Broken: Precinct 24’s Streets Are Killing Fields
Precinct 24: Jan 1, 2022 - Jun 6, 2025
The Toll on Our Streets
Five dead. Eight left with serious injuries. In the last three years, Precinct 24 has seen 1,140 crashes. One hundred five people were hurt in the last year alone. The dead include a 13-year-old girl, a 69-year-old woman, and a child not yet old enough for school. They were walking—crossing with the light or without. They are gone.
SUVs killed three. Sedans and trucks left bodies broken. Bikes, too, have left their mark. The numbers do not flinch. They do not care about age. The dead are children, elders, and everyone in between.
A Name, Not a Number
Miriam Reinharth was crossing Amsterdam at 96th. An ambulance turned left into her path. She died from her wounds. Her husband remembered the moment: “The police officer said the accident was not Miriam’s fault at all.” The driver was charged with failure to yield and failure to exercise due care. The street remains wide, fast, and dangerous.
Leadership: Promises and Power
The city has the tools. Albany passed Sammy’s Law. The Council can lower speed limits to 20 mph. The NYPD can enforce the law. Cameras can catch speeders. Tickets can be written. But the pace is slow. The carnage continues. Each day of delay is another risk, another family shattered.
The Role of Precinct 24
Precinct 24 can act. Officers can target speeding. They can crack down on failure to yield. They can focus on crash hotspots. They can treat traffic violence as the crime it is. They just need to know it matters.
What You Can Do
This is not fate. Call your Council Member. Call the Mayor. Demand a 20 mph speed limit. Demand enforcement. Demand action. Do not wait for another name to be added to the list. Take action now.
