Main Street, a bike, and a pickup
SD 16: Jan 1, 2022 - Oct 18, 2025
Just before 4 PM on Oct 4, at Main St and 57 Rd, a driver in a pickup and a person on a bike collided. Police marked the crash as speed‑related. The cyclist suffered crush injuries and was ejected (NYC Open Data).
This Week
- Oct 1: at Bell Blvd and 41 Ave, a driver in an SUV making a left hit a man on a bike; he suffered head injuries (NYC Open Data).
- Sep 28: at Kissena Boulevard by the Long Island Expressway, a driver in a Kia SUV turned right and hit a man on a bike; he was ejected and injured (NYC Open Data).
The pattern does not let up
Since Jan 1, 2022, in Queens’ Senate District 16, 47 people have been killed and 6,385 injured in 11,121 crashes (NYC Open Data).
In the past 12 months, 14 people died here. Another 1,899 were hurt. Forty‑nine suffered serious injuries. There were 3,126 crashes in that span (NYC Open Data).
Year to date, serious injuries are up 76.9% over last year to date in this district, while deaths ticked up from 8 to 9 and crashes rose from 2,278 to 2,472 (NYC Open Data).
Main corridors, hard truths
Northern Boulevard keeps appearing in fatal records. A 74‑year‑old man walking at Northern Blvd and 217 St was killed on Jun 11, 2025. A 78‑year‑old woman was killed near Parsons Blvd on Mar 14, 2025. Both deaths were recorded in this district (NYC Open Data).
A 55‑year‑old woman on an e‑bike was killed at 50 Ave and Hollis Court Blvd on Jul 31, 2025. Police listed the SUV driver as making a left when he hit her (NYC Open Data).
On the Van Wyck and the Long Island Expressway, pedestrians died in separate crashes in late 2024. The records show “apparent death” and a road built for speed (NYC Open Data).
The levers are there
Albany advanced a bill to force the worst repeat speeders to slow down. Senate bill S4045 would require intelligent speed assistance for habitual violators. State Sen. John Liu co‑sponsored it and voted yes in committee in June 2025 (Open States).
City leaders also have the power to set safer speed limits. Our own call is plain: use that power to drop residential speeds to 20 MPH and pair it with speed‑limiting tech for repeat offenders. The case and the steps are laid out here.
Who will move?
People are dying on Main Street, on Northern, on the expressways. The deaths and injuries keep stacking up in SD 16. The fixes sit idle until someone makes the call.
Lower the speeds. Rein in the worst repeat drivers. Start now. Take action.
