Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in Precinct 75?
Blood on the Asphalt: Who Will Stop the Killing in Precinct 75?
Precinct 75: Jan 1, 2022 - Jul 18, 2025
The Toll in Blood and Bone
Twelve dead. Fifty-one seriously hurt. That is the cost on the streets of Precinct 75 since 2022. The numbers do not flinch. They do not blink. They do not care if you look away. In the last twelve months alone, five people died and twenty more were left with wounds that do not heal. The youngest was a child. The oldest, a grandmother. Most were walking. Some were crossing with the light. Some never made it to the other side.
A sedan hit a 36-year-old man at Broadway and East New York Avenue. He died at the intersection, another name for the city to forget.BMW Driver Kills Two in Brooklyn Hit-and-Run. A 57-year-old woman was killed by an SUV while crossing Pennsylvania Avenue with the signal. The driver turned left. She did not get up.Driver Doing Donuts Kills Brooklyn Woman.
SUVs and sedans do most of the killing. Out of 4,973 injuries, cars and SUVs account for the largest share. Trucks, buses, motorcycles, mopeds, and bikes add to the toll. The road does not care what you drive. It only cares that you do not stop.
Reckless Acts, Empty Promises
The carnage is not random. It is not fate. It is the sum of choices. Last week, a young man spun his car in circles at Gateway Center. He lost control. He killed his girlfriend. Police charged him with negligent homicide. “He was doing the dangerous spinning trick in a luxury car… when he slammed into Madisyn Ruiz, 21, who was sitting on a curb nearby,” reported the New York Post. The tire marks are still there. The family is not whole.
A relative said, “It was just a freak accident. Nothing intentional. I know that he loved her. He loved her dearly. He’d do anything for her, and she would do the same for him.” Driver Doing Donuts Kills Girlfriend.
Leadership: Action or Excuse?
The police in Precinct 75 have the power to stop this. They can ticket speeders. They can crack down on reckless turns and drivers who fail to yield. They can target the corners where people die. But the numbers do not show mercy. The violence continues.
Local leaders have tools. The city can lower speed limits. The state renewed speed cameras. But the blood on the street says it is not enough. Every day of delay is another day for a family to lose someone.
What Now? Demand More
Call your council member. Call the precinct. Demand enforcement. Demand safer streets. Do not wait for another name to be added to the list. The road will not wait. Why should you?
