Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in Precinct 90?

Preventable Speeding in Precinct 90 School Zones

(since 2022)
Grand and Manhattan: a woman loses her leg. The pattern holds.

Grand and Manhattan: a woman loses her leg. The pattern holds.

Precinct 90: Jan 1, 2022 - Nov 30, 2025

Just after noon on Nov 25, 2025 at Grand Street and Manhattan Avenue, police records show the driver of a sedan was going straight; a 33-year-old woman walking was left with an amputation. NYC Open Data.

This is Precinct 90. Since Jan 1, 2022, traffic crashes here have killed 14 people and injured 3,140, with 52 serious injuries. NYC Open Data.

This Month

  • Nov 23: a person on a bike was hurt in a crash with an SUV near Humboldt Street. NYC Open Data
  • Nov 21: at Broadway and Lorimer Street, police recorded the driver disregarded traffic control and failed to yield; a 34-year-old man on a bike suffered head trauma. NYC Open Data
  • Nov 16: at Ten Eyck Street and Varick Avenue, a truck driver’s crash left a 27-year-old man on foot with crush injuries. NYC Open Data

Afternoon pain, the same corners

The hurt piles up in the afternoon. The 4–7 PM hours see the most injuries here. NYC Open Data.

Certain corridors tell the story. Morgan Avenue has seen 2 deaths and 59 injuries. Broadway shows 1 death and 174 injuries. NYC Open Data.

Police most often cite driver inattention, failure to yield, and disregarding traffic control among the named factors in serious harm recorded here. NYC Open Data.

Year to date: fewer crashes, more lives lost

So far this year, Precinct 90 has logged 1,239 crashes, 5 deaths, 676 injuries, and 18 serious injuries — compared to 1,291 crashes, 4 deaths, 672 injuries, and 11 serious injuries at this point last year. NYC Open Data.

People on bikes carry a heavy share: since 2022, 4 cyclists have been killed here and 591 have been injured. People on foot: 3 killed, 498 injured. NYC Open Data.

Fix the turns. Clear the corners. Slow the traffic.

The tools are known and local. Daylight every leg at Morgan Avenue and Broadway. Add hardened turns and leading pedestrian intervals at their worst junctions. Build and protect continuous bike lanes through those corridors. Direct heavy trucks off local streets near Ten Eyck and Varick with clear routing and enforcement. These are immediate steps precinct and city officials can take at the spots where people keep getting hit. NYC Open Data.

Citywide policy can backstop the fixes here. New York City now has the power to set safer speeds under Sammy’s Law; a default 20 MPH on residential streets would give people a chance to live through a mistake. The Stop Super Speeders Act (S4045C/A2299C) would require intelligent speed assistance for the worst repeat offenders. Both are concrete steps already teed up. Take Action.

This is how the bleeding stops. Start at Grand and Manhattan. Then keep going.

Precinct leadership and electeds for this area: Council Member Jennifer Gutiérrez, Assembly Member Emily Gallagher, and State Senator Julia Salazar. The state bills to rein in repeat speeders are S4045C/A2299C. Constituents can ask them to co-sponsor and press for passage this session. Take Action.
