Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in SD 22?
Senator Sutton: Absent While Brooklyn Bleeds
SD 22: Jan 1, 2022 - Jul 28, 2025
The Deaths Keep Coming
In Senate District 22, the numbers do not lie. Forty people killed. Fifty-one seriously injured. Since 2022, the streets have not spared the old or the young. In the past year alone, fifteen people died and over 1,500 were hurt. Five of the dead were children or elders. The disaster moves slow, but it does not stop.
Just weeks ago, a 90-year-old man was killed crossing Avenue U at East 14th. A blue moped hit him and fled. “He was laid out on the floor. His head was wide open,” said a witness. Police are still looking for the rider. The family waits for answers. The street stays the same.
Days before, a 70-year-old man was killed at Avenue I and East 5th. The driver was distracted. The man died crossing the street. No new laws, no new protections. Just another name on the list.
The Vehicles That Kill
SUVs and cars did most of the damage: 21 deaths, 14 serious injuries. Trucks and buses killed four. Motorcycles and mopeds took one more. Bikes caused none. The pattern is clear. The danger is heavy and fast.
Leadership: Missing in Action
State Senator Sam Sutton missed the vote on the Stop Super Speeders Act—a bill that would have forced repeat dangerous drivers to slow down with speed-limiting devices. The bill passed committee without him (NYC Open Data). While others pushed for action, Sutton was silent. “We hope the authorities can find the person who did this. We are also concerned about the motorcycles running rampant in crowded residential areas,” said the victim’s grandson. The pleas go unanswered.
What Now?
This is not fate. This is policy. Every delay means another family broken. Call Senator Sutton. Demand he show up, vote, and fight for real change. The dead cannot speak. The living must.
