Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in Precinct 25?

Preventable Speeding in Precinct 25 School Zones

Five Corners in Precinct 25, Four People Down, and a Question

Five Corners in Precinct 25, Four People Down, and a Question

Precinct 25: Jan 1, 2022 - Oct 17, 2025

On Oct 7 at W 139 St and 5 Ave, a driver in an SUV turned right and hit a 39-year-old man in the intersection, police records show (NYC Open Data).

This Week

  • Sep 29 at E 128 St and Lexington Ave, two people walking — a 63-year-old and a 5-year-old — were hit by a left-turning vehicle; police recorded failure to yield by the driver (NYC Open Data).
  • Sep 27 on Harlem River Drive, a 55-year-old driver was killed in a crash just after 3 AM (NYC Open Data).
  • Sep 26 at E 125 St and 3 Ave, a 53-year-old man crossing with the signal was hit; police recorded a driver disregarding traffic control (NYC Open Data).

The toll on these blocks

Since 2022, Precinct 25 has recorded 3,510 crashes, 1,889 injuries, and 9 deaths (NYC Open Data). People walking bear the brunt: 7 of those deaths and 332 injuries were pedestrians. People on bikes were hurt 215 times (NYC Open Data).

The danger clusters. Harlem River Drive is a hotspot with 3 deaths. East 125th Street shows 1 death and 114 injuries across its length (NYC Open Data).

When and how it happens

Deaths here are not random hours in the night. Police logged 3 deaths at 10 AM, 2 at 9 PM, and others across the day (NYC Open Data).

In recent serious pedestrian crashes, police cited driver failure to yield at E 128 St and Lexington Ave and a driver disregarding traffic control at E 125 St and 3 Ave. At W 139 St and 5 Ave, the driver turned right into the crosswalk. The actions are plain; the outcomes are permanent (NYC Open Data).

Fix the corners that keep breaking people

Start with the known sites. Harden right turns and add daylighting at W 139 St and 5 Ave. Run targeted failure-to-yield enforcement and left-turn calming at E 128 St and Lexington Ave. Daylight and protect crossings along East 125th Street. These are standard tools. They prevent the crashes described above (NYC Open Data).

Stop the speed before it starts

Citywide rules shape local corners. Lower speeds give people a chance to live. Our city already has the tools. A citywide 20 MPH default and speed limiters for repeat speeders would keep the worst harm from happening. The campaign is laid out here: Take Action.

This is Precinct 25. Four people down in the past month. The next step is not a mystery. Ask City Hall and Albany to use the tools they already have. Start here.

How were these numbers calculated?
We used NYC’s Motor Vehicle Collisions datasets (“Crashes” h9gi-nx95 and “Persons” f55k-p6yu), filtering for Police Precinct 25 and the period 2022-01-01 to 2025-10-17. We counted crashes, injuries, and deaths, and identified hotspot corridors by summing incidents by on-street name. Data were accessed Oct 16–17, 2025. You can start from the city datasets here and here.
