Senate District 29: five crashes, five serious injuries in one week
Jan 16–23: five crashes and five serious injuries in Senate District 29. Drivers failed to yield and blew controls. One man crossing with the signal was hit on E 143 St.
Senate District 29 went loud in one week. From Jan 16 to Jan 23, there were five crashes. Five people suffered serious injuries.
The pattern is plain. Drivers failed to yield. Drivers disregarded traffic control. On Jan 20 at E 143 St and Morris Ave, police say a driver turning left hit a 50-year-old man crossing with the signal. He suffered severe lacerations to his lower leg.
State Senator Jose Serrano can back hard safety fixes now, including the Stop Super Speeders Act (S4045).

Crash Count for SD 29 234 crashes • 0 deaths
About these crash totals
Counts come from NYC police crash reports (NYPD Motor Vehicle Collisions on NYC Open Data). We sum all crashes, injuries, and deaths for this area across the selected time window shown on the card. Injury severity follows DOT's KABCO definitions mapped from the NYPD Person table (injury status, injury type, and injury location).
- Crashes: number of police‑reported collisions (all road users).
- All injuries: people with any reported injury (KABCO A/B/C or generic "injured").
- Moderate / Serious: suspected minor + suspected serious injuries (KABCO B + A).
- Deaths: killed or apparent death reported by police (KABCO K).
Change badges (arrows and percentages) compare the selected window with the same period last year whenever we have enough history. The “From 2022” view shows totals across the full span since 2022. When a comparison window isn’t available the badge shows an em dash.
Notes: Police reports can be corrected after initial publication. We cannot verify "death within 30 days" or hospital outcomes, so small differences from DOT totals are possible. Minor incidents without a police report are not included.
