Precinct 81: Four dead, hundreds hurt. Same streets, same story.
Precinct 81: Jan 1, 2022 - Aug 24, 2025
Another driver. Same ending.
- A 47-year-old man died before dawn at Broadway and Suydam. Police said the car dragged him more than 50 feet. The driver kept going. “Police were looking… for the driver,” and it was not clear who had the light. “A driver struck and killed a 47-year-old pedestrian… then left the scene,” police said. The city data lists the death at 3:43 a.m. at Broadway and Suydam. CrashID 4832241.
- A woman, 32, died on Marcus Garvey Blvd near Van Buren just before midnight. Three vehicles were involved, two parked. The third was a 2024 Jeep going straight. City data marks her cause as crush injuries. CrashID 4815727.
- An older man, 63, was killed at Broadway and Myrtle. The SUV went straight. The record shows “Driver Inattention/Distraction.” CrashID 4751938.
The bodies keep coming from the same corridors. The records do not heal. They count.
Night takes the most.
- The worst hours stack up after dark. 11 p.m. shows two deaths. 3 a.m. shows one. 6 a.m. shows one. Injuries spike at 8 p.m., 9 p.m., 10 p.m., and after. The tally marks a long night. Hourly distribution.
- Since 2022, this precinct logged 2,231 crashes, 1,167 injuries, and four deaths. SUVs and cars led the harm to people on foot: three pedestrian deaths tied to SUVs in the local rollup. Period stats.
Broadway bleeds.
- Broadway is a top hot spot, with one death and 175 injuries. Top intersections. Marcus Garvey Blvd holds two deaths.
- Pedestrians pay most: four killed, 247 hurt; cyclists: 124 hurt. The numbers are plain. Mode split.
What police said.
- “A driver struck and killed a 47-year-old pedestrian… then left the scene,” police said about Broadway and Suydam.
- Detectives said the victim was “dragged more than 50 feet.”
Three corners. One fix.
- Broadway at Suydam. Broadway at Myrtle. Marcus Garvey at Van Buren. These are the repeat scenes. The tool kit is not new: hardened turns, daylighting, and leading pedestrian intervals. Targeted night operations at these corners. The data says when and where. Open Data.
Officials know what works — do they?
- The city can slow the whole grid. Albany passed Sammy’s Law. A 20 mph default would make every crash more survivable. The call is simple. Take action.
- A few drivers do outsized harm. The Stop Super Speeders Act would force repeat speeders to use speed limiters. This targets the worst risks. Take action.
Don’t wait for the next siren.
- Broadway and Suydam. Marcus Garvey and Van Buren. Broadway and Myrtle. The clock runs late. The road takes what we let it take. Open Data.
