Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in SD 10?
Belt Parkway Burns, Families Mourn—How Many Dead Before We Change the Streets?
SD 10: Jan 1, 2022 - Aug 4, 2025
The Death Count Rises
In Senate District 10, the road keeps taking. In the last twelve months, 16 people died and 2,305 were injured in crashes. Thirty suffered injuries so severe they may never walk the same. The dead include children, elders, and mothers. Just last month, a BMW vaulted the Belt Parkway divider and caught fire. Two died. Three more were thrown from the car. Police said, “No one in the doomed BMW was wearing a seat belt” according to NY Daily News. The parkway closed for hours. The city moved on.
A week before, a moped rider was killed on 121st Street. In February, a minivan crash on Brookville Boulevard killed a 78-year-old woman. The numbers do not stop. Since 2022, 38 people have died and 6,600 have been injured in SD 10.
The System Fails the Vulnerable
SUVs and sedans do the most harm. In this district, cars and trucks killed 11 people and injured 511. Motorcycles and mopeds left 10 more dead or hurt. Bikes, too, are in the tally. The old and the young are not spared. The system keeps moving. The bodies pile up.
A mother lost her daughter to a teen driver in a BMW. She said, “I wish they would never have given him that car… if they didn’t give him that car, my daughter would still be here right now” she told Gothamist.
Leadership: Progress and the Long Road Ahead
Senator James Sanders has voted for safety bills. He backed the Stop Super Speeders Act, which targets repeat dangerous drivers according to Open States. He voted to extend school speed zones. He supports QueensLink, a plan to bring transit and safer streets to the district. But the carnage continues. Every week, another family is broken.
Call to Action: Demand More
This is not fate. It is failure. Call Senator Sanders. Call your council member. Demand a citywide 20 mph speed limit. Demand real investment in street redesign, not just words. Do not wait for another name to be added to the list.
