Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in Precinct 6?

Preventable Speeding in Precinct 6 School Zones

Precinct 6: Crosswalks, Sirens, Silence

Precinct 6: Crosswalks, Sirens, Silence

Precinct 6: Jan 1, 2022 - Sep 29, 2025

At 7 Avenue South and Leroy Street on Sep 23, a driver turned left and hit a 30‑year‑old woman in the marked crosswalk; police recorded failure to yield by the driver (NYC Open Data).

This Week

  • Sep 23: A left‑turning driver in a Jeep hit a woman walking at 7 Avenue South and Leroy Street; police cited failure to yield (NYC Open Data).
  • Sep 22: A driver going straight hit a person on a bike at Hudson Street and West 12th; police noted driver distraction (NYC Open Data).

The toll in this precinct

Since 2022, Precinct 6 has logged 1,755 crashes, with 758 people injured and 5 killed (NYC Open Data). Pedestrians account for 3 of those deaths; one person on a bike and one vehicle occupant are the others, as reflected in the precinct roll‑up of city crash records (NYC Open Data).

Police reports in this precinct repeatedly list two driver behaviors: failure to yield and distraction. The Sep 23 crosswalk hit shows failure to yield. The Sep 22 bike crash shows distraction (NYC Open Data).

Where the bodies break

Bleecker Street leads the precinct’s list of hot spots, with 1 death and 21 injuries recorded; Hudson Street and West 14 Street also show heavy injury counts in recent years (NYC Open Data). At 7 Avenue and West 14 Street, a man walking was seriously hurt by a bus in 2024 (crash record 4747288).

Nights are not quiet. Fatal crashes in this precinct cluster in the evening and late hours: deaths are logged around 5 AM, 4 PM, 7 PM, 8 PM, and 11 PM in the precinct’s hourly distribution (NYC Open Data).

What Precinct 6 can do now

  • Harden left turns and add leading pedestrian intervals at Leroy/7th and Hudson/W 12th. Daylight corners on Bleecker and along Hudson.
  • Target failure‑to‑yield blitzes at the top injury corners named above. Pair with sustained distraction enforcement.
  • Run nighttime detail at the evening peak and late hours when deaths recur.

The citywide fixes that would help here

Lower speeds save lives. Slower turns mean fewer people thrown to the pavement. NYC can cut speeds and rein in repeat speeders. The next steps are clear: lower the default speed limit citywide and require intelligent speed limiters for habitual speeders. The case and the path are laid out here.

Who answers for this map

This precinct sits in Council District 3, represented by Erik D. Bottcher, Assembly District 66, represented by Deborah Glick, and Senate District 27, represented by Brian Kavanagh. The Stop Super Speeders bill (S4045C/A2299C) would force the worst repeat offenders to slow down; will they co‑sponsor and move it? The crashes above are their streets (more on the policy path).

The throughline

A woman walking at Leroy and Seventh. A person on a bike at Hudson and West 12th. The records stack up. The numbers do not blink. Act to slow the turns and the streets. Then keep going. /take_action/.
