Two young riders dead on the Bronx River Parkway. The pattern is older than they were.
Precinct 40: Jan 1, 2022 - Aug 26, 2025
Two young riders died before sunrise. Police say a 21‑year‑old in a Mercedes tried to pass on the Bronx River Parkway, clipped a Volkswagen, then hit two bikes. Both men were thrown and died at the hospital. The driver was charged with vehicular manslaughter and DWI. “He was drunk,” a sister said, standing in court. “Two people were killed.” Gothamist and the Daily News reported the charges and the names: Manuel Amarantepenalo, 19, and Enrique Martinez, 21.
“How could they let him go? How could they do that?” the victims’ mother asked, after the first court appearance. Daily News
“My client is prepared to contest these charges,” the defense said. Daily News
Night is when this precinct bleeds. In Precinct 40, deaths stack up after dark: 1 a.m., 2 a.m., 7 p.m., 9 p.m., 10 p.m., 11 p.m. The late‑night hours carry a heavy share of bodies and wounds. Injuries spike again at the evening rush. The data doesn’t blink. NYC Open Data
East 149th keeps taking people
A taxi struck a 61‑year‑old man on East 149th. Police logged “driver inattention.” He died. Open Data crash record for CrashID 4735638.
A 57‑year‑old cyclist was hit at E 149th and Brook by a turning bus. He was ejected and died. Open Data crash record for CrashID 4795059.

This strip shows up again in the precinct’s hotspots: East 149 Street, E 149 St, and the Bruckner corridors. Top intersections.
Who gets hurt, and when
Since 2022, the precinct logged 3,803 crashes, with 2,412 injuries and 15 deaths. Pedestrians were hit 388 times; six died. Cyclists saw 242 crashes; three died. Riders on small motorized bikes were struck 62 times; one died. Car and SUV occupants took most of the impact, but they create it too. Precinct stats.
SUVs and sedans are the main source of pedestrian harm here, followed by trucks and taxis. Buses kill too, if you’re in the crosswalk when they turn. Precinct vehicle rollup.
The leads on causes read like a shrug: “other” is stamped on most deaths and serious injuries. Vulnerable road user “error” gets blamed next, then distraction, alcohol, and blown signals. People still end up dead in the same places. Contributing factors.
The parkway crash is not a one‑off
Police said all drivers stayed at the scene. The Highway unit took the case. The charges include vehicular manslaughter and DWI. The road closed near Gun Hill for hours. amNY, Gothamist, CBS New York.
Families showed up in court. “He’s just walking freely? Two people were killed,” a sister said. She named the harm and the choice alleged by police. Daily News.
Fix the corners that kill
The data points to places and times. Work there first.
- Daylight the mouths of East 149th. Add hardened turns. Give leading pedestrian intervals. Drivers keep turning into people. The records show it. CrashIDs 4795059, 4803347
- Slow the Bruckner frontage and near the expressway ramps. Raised crossings and tighter lanes at Bruckner Blvd and Bruckner Expressway. Night patrols where injuries spike.
- Target repeat hotspots after dark. The precinct’s curve shows deaths clustered in late hours. Set up there. Hourly distribution.
Citywide steps that stop the bleed
Lower speeds save lives. New York now has the power to lower limits citywide under Sammy’s Law. Use it. Make 20 mph the norm on local streets. Then deal with the small group of drivers who rack up tickets and keep killing. Mandate speed limiters for the worst repeat offenders.
