Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in Precinct 50?

Preventable Speeding in Precinct 50 School Zones

(since 2022)

A child on W 232 St, and the toll in Precinct 50

Precinct 50: Jan 1, 2022 - Sep 18, 2025

On Sep 13, about 5 PM, at W 232 St and Fairfield Ave, a driver in an SUV hit a 10-year-old on a bike. He was injured (NYC Open Data).

This Week

  • Sep 7, just after 2 AM, a driver hit and killed a 30-year-old man on Mosholu Parkway; police said it was a hit-and-run (ABC7).
  • Aug 13, on Broadway near 5731, a driver in an SUV and a person on a bike crashed; the cyclist was injured (NYC Open Data).
  • Aug 9, at Bailey Ave and W 230 St, a driver in a sedan hit a woman on a bike who had stopped in traffic; she was injured (NYC Open Data).

The count in Precinct 50

Since 2022, Precinct 50 has recorded 11 deaths and 1,849 injuries in 3,222 crashes (NYC Open Data). Pedestrians account for 6 deaths and 285 injuries; people in cars account for 5 deaths (NYC Open Data).

Year-to-date, there have been 573 crashes, with 1 death and 396 injuries; last year at this point, it was 607 crashes, 1 death, and 399 injuries (NYC Open Data). The numbers do not rest.

Nights and corridors that don’t forgive

Deaths cluster in the small hours. The overnight window around 2–4 AM keeps showing up in the records (NYC Open Data).

The Major Deegan Expressway is a top hotspot for harm, as is Broadway (NYC Open Data). On Mosholu Parkway, a 30-year-old man was killed on Sep 7 (ABC7).

Police reports in this precinct keep naming speed. In recent cases, officers recorded unsafe speed in crashes on Broadway near W 242 St, on the Major Deegan, and in a rear-end that injured a 9-year-old passenger (Open Data: Aug 3, Aug 29, Aug 23). Among pedestrians hurt here, SUVs and sedans dominate; SUVs alone are tied to 3 pedestrian deaths in this period (NYC Open Data).

What must change now

“Speed cameras have cut speeding by over 60% in locations where installed,” a state summary noted (NYS Senate). The tools exist; leaders choose whether to use them.

  • Lower the default city speed limit under the authority advocates have already won. Make 20 MPH the norm on local streets (Take Action).
  • Stop repeat speeders. Pass the Stop Super Speeders Act (S4045C/A2299C) to require speed limiters for drivers who rack up violations (Take Action).

This precinct sits in districts represented by Council Member Eric Dinowitz, Assembly Member Jeffrey Dinowitz, and State Senator Robert Jackson. Will they move these fixes now? The record here shows what delay costs.
