Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in Precinct 9?

Preventable Speeding in Precinct 9 School Zones

(since 2022)
Broadway at 13th: a cyclist down, a pattern unbroken

Broadway at 13th: a cyclist down, a pattern unbroken

Precinct 9: Jan 1, 2022 - Oct 14, 2025

Just after noon on Oct 4, at Broadway and E 13th, the driver of a bus and a person on a bike collided. Police recorded the cyclist injured and conscious, thrown in a southbound lane. City data lists it as a severe injury crash.

This Week

  • Oct 2 at E 14th and 3rd, a taxi driver hit a 43-year-old on a bike. He was found unconscious. City data
  • Sept 27 at Avenue A and St. Marks Place, a driver merging hit a person walking outside the intersection. City data
  • Sept 17 at Avenue C and E 6th, police recorded a driver who ignored the signal and failed to yield. A 10-year-old crossing with the walk signal was hurt. City data

One corner, then another

This is Precinct 9. Since 2022, there have been 1,664 crashes, 974 injuries, and 7 deaths here. Police recorded 19 serious injuries. City data

People walking and biking carry the harm. Police count 219 pedestrians injured and 311 cyclists injured in that span. Five of the seven dead were people on foot. City data

The pain clusters. East 14th Street is a repeat injury corridor. Avenue C and Avenue D stand out for deaths and severe injuries. City data

The clock tells on us

Crashes pile up in the evening. 8 PM has the most recorded injuries in this precinct over the period. Then 6 PM, 9 PM, and midnight. These are commutes, dinners, walks home. City data

Police reports name what keeps hurting people: drivers who ignore signals; drivers who fail to yield. Both appear again and again in the files. City data

Precinct 9 knows the corners

Avenue C and E 14th. Avenue D. First Avenue. Lafayette Street. Each shows a trail of injuries, some with deaths. These are known places. The fixes are known too: daylight the corners, give leading walk signals, harden the turns, slow the turns, calm the blocks. Target enforcement where the bodies fall—failure to yield at crosswalks, red-light running on East 14th, and evening speeding.

City rules can change this

City Hall can lower speeds. The state gave the city that lever. Use it on the residential grid. Make 20 the default where people live and walk. Mandate speed limiters for drivers who rack up camera tickets and points. The bill exists. The tech exists. The carnage exists. Our own action guide lays out both steps and how to push them. Read it, then act.

Who’s on the hook

This precinct sits in Council District 2, Assembly District 65, and State Senate District 27. Council Member Carlina Rivera, Assembly Member Grace Lee, and State Senator Brian Kavanagh represent this area. The repeat-speeder bill is named in our action guide. Do your state reps back it? The record here doesn’t show it. What gives?

The kid on E 6th had the light. The cyclist on Broadway had a lane. The pattern holds until someone breaks it. Start with the speed. Then fix the corners. Then hold the worst drivers to the line. Act now.
