Night at Mount Eden, another body in the road
Precinct 44: Jan 1, 2022 - Nov 12, 2025
Just after dark on Nov 6, at E Mount Eden Ave and Monroe Ave, a driver in an SUV hit a 17‑year‑old in the intersection. Police recorded the teen as injured at the corner. NYC Open Data
This Week
- Nov 5 at E 165 St and Grand Concourse: a driver disregarded traffic control and hit a person who was crossing with the signal, police say. NYC Open Data
- Nov 3 at Jerome Ave and Goble Pl: a driver in a sedan hit a person on a bike. NYC Open Data
- Oct 30 at E 165 St and Findlay Ave: a taxi driver making a left turn failed to yield and hit a person in a marked crosswalk, police recorded. NYC Open Data
The toll doesn’t let up
Since Jan 1, 2022, crashes in Precinct 44 have left 12 people dead and 2,922 injured. NYC Open Data
People on foot have borne much of it: 4 pedestrians killed and 584 injured. People on bikes: 195 injured. These figures come from the city’s crash database for this precinct. NYC Open Data
Police reports show the same failures again and again. A driver failed to yield on E 165 St. A driver blew a signal at Grand Concourse. Both victims were crossing with the light. Crash 4853922 Crash 4855270
Where the street breaks people
The worst hours tilt to the dark. Deadly counts spike around 1 AM and 5 AM, according to precinct data. NYC Open Data
Hot spots repeat. Major Deegan Expressway. Webster Avenue. Jerome Avenue. These corridors account for heavy injury totals and multiple deaths in this command. NYC Open Data
What the precinct can do now
Aim enforcement where harm is worst: overnight on the Grand Concourse, and at left‑turn conflict points like E 165 St. Target failure to yield and red‑light running at the known corners listed above. NYC Open Data
Lock in simple fixes: daylight the corners, harden left turns, add leading pedestrian intervals where people cross, and keep them working. These countermeasures meet the patterns in the data: turning drivers hitting people in crosswalks, and night‑time danger at wide roads. NYC Open Data
City Hall and Albany have tools. Use them.
Lower speeds save lives. New York City now has the power to lower limits under Sammy’s Law. The city can make more 20 MPH zones and tighten the default. Pass ISA for repeat speeders so the worst drivers can’t keep speeding after dozens of tickets. The steps are laid out here. /take_action/
Bronx leaders in this precinct’s footprint know the stakes: Council Member Diana I. Ayala, Assembly Member Landon Dais, and State Senator Jose Serrano. The crashes on their main streets are not secrets. The fixes are not either. /take_action/
One teen at Mount Eden. A few blocks over, another person in a crosswalk. It goes on until someone stops it. /take_action/
