The toll here is not a headline; it’s a count

Since 2022, Precinct 66 has recorded 26 deaths and 3,244 injuries in 5,333 crashes. NYC Open Data

People walking paid the highest price: 13 pedestrians killed and 864 injured. People on bikes: 4 killed and 543 injured. NYC Open Data

SUV drivers are tied to the most harm to people on foot here: 364 pedestrian injuries and deaths, compared with 275 for sedans. Trucks are linked to 34. NYC Open Data

When the streets go lethal

Deaths stack up in the afternoon and evening, peaking around 3 PM, 6 PM, 9 PM, and 10 PM. NYC Open Data

Police reports often list driver behaviors we can fix. Failure to yield shows up in this week’s crash. Distraction appears again and again in fatal records. NYC Open Data

At Coney Island Avenue and Ditmas Avenue, a 16-year-old on an e-bike was killed when a box truck driver turned right. That was Aug 19, 2024. NYC Open Data (Crash 4749410)

Corners that keep breaking people

Fort Hamilton Parkway leads this precinct’s pain, with four deaths recorded along it. Caton Avenue follows with three. Ocean Parkway is another deep wound. NYC Open Data

These are places the 66th Precinct and DOT can work now: daylighting, hardened turns, and leading pedestrian intervals at wide crossings; center-line hardening and protected space where people bike. Targeted enforcement at these corners in the hours when the killing spikes. NYC Open Data

“Why can’t our officials prevent this kind of predictable incident?” Streetsblog NYC

The policy levers are on the table

City Hall has the power to lower speeds. Albany already passed Sammy’s Law. The city can set safer limits on local streets. Our neighbors below Canal Street are seeing 20 MPH zones roll out; the rest of us need that urgency. NYC DOT/Recent Policy History

State lawmakers also have a bill aimed at the worst repeat offenders. The Stop Super Speeders Act (S4045C/A2299C) would require speed limiters for drivers who rack up violations. Details and a script are on our Take Action page.

Your local officials for this area are Council Member Alexa Avilés, Assembly Member Robert Carroll, and State Senator Steve Chan. Have they pushed these measures? What gives?

Do the simple things first

  • Fix the known corners: Fort Hamilton Parkway, Caton Avenue, Ocean Parkway. Harden them. Give people walking the head start. Enforce yielding in the peak hours. NYC Open Data
  • Lower the default speed where people live and cross. Roll 20 MPH to residential streets. Take Action
  • Stop the repeat offenders. Pass speed limiters for superspeeders. Take Action

One man went down at 9th and 50th at dusk. There will be another dusk. Do the work now. NYC Open Data
