Precinct 66: Jan 1, 2022 - Nov 1, 2025

Just after 6 PM on Oct 27, 2025, a person on an e‑bike collided with the driver of an SUV on 11 Avenue. Police recorded a serious injury in the crash data (NYC Open Data).

This Week

  • On Oct 23, a driver in a sedan hit a person walking at Ditmas Avenue and McDonald Avenue; police logged a serious injury (NYC Open Data).
  • On Oct 20, a driver in an SUV hit a person walking at 16 Avenue and 44 Street; police logged a serious injury (NYC Open Data).

The count does not stop

Since Jan 1, 2022, 25 people have been killed in Precinct 66, with 3,129 injured (NYC Open Data). That includes 12 people walking and 4 people on bikes recorded among the dead in this area’s crash rollup.

In the past 12 months alone, police recorded 1,208 crashes here, with 824 injuries and 6 deaths (NYC Open Data). The pace is steady. The grief repeats.

Where streets fail

Police list Fort Hamilton Parkway among the worst corridors, tied to 4 deaths and 54 injuries since 2022 (NYC Open Data). Caton Avenue shows 3 deaths and 44 injuries. Ocean Parkway has 2 deaths and 174 injuries in the same span.

Afternoons around 3 PM and nights around 9 PM are when deaths pile up here—police tallied 5 deaths at about 3 PM and 4 deaths at about 9 PM across this period (NYC Open Data). Police also recorded fatal crashes where drivers disregarded traffic signals or signs (3 deaths) and where alcohol was involved (1 death) in this precinct’s dataset.

Who gets hurt

Pedestrians bear the force of larger vehicles. Here, crashes involving SUV drivers account for 351 pedestrian injuries and 7 pedestrian deaths since 2022, compared with 267 injuries and 3 deaths involving sedans in pedestrian crashes (NYC Open Data).

Fix the corners, slow the turns

Start where blood is already on the map. Harden turns and add daylighting and leading walk signals on Fort Hamilton Parkway and Caton Avenue. Treat Ocean Parkway’s merges and turns with physical slow‑turn geometry. Target failure‑to‑yield and red‑light running at these spots with visible enforcement. These are standard tools; the data say where to use them.

Power exists. Will it be used?

Citywide tools can backstop local fixes. The city now has authority to lower speeds; advocates are pressing for a default 20 MPH limit and stronger controls on repeat speeders, including intelligent speed assistance for habitual offenders, as laid out in our Take Action brief.

Albany has a bill on the table—the Stop Super Speeders Act (S4045C/A2299C)—that would require speed limiters for the worst repeat offenders, as summarized in Take Action. This precinct overlaps districts represented by Alexa Avilés, Robert Carroll, and Steve Chan. The public record here does not show whether they have co‑sponsored that bill. What gives?

Lower the speeds. Rein in repeat speeders. Start at the corners where people keep getting hit. One address at a time, so another family does not get the call.

Take one step now: tell City Hall and Albany to act. Use our Take Action.
