Who’s Injuring and Killing Pedestrians in SD 33?
Blood on River Avenue: Bronx Streets Still Kill
SD 33: Jan 1, 2022 - Jul 18, 2025
The Toll: Lives Lost, Streets Unforgiving
In Senate District 33, the numbers do not lie. Nineteen people have died on these streets since 2022. Sixty-two have been left with serious injuries. In the last twelve months alone, over 1,350 people were hurt—children, elders, workers, neighbors. The dead do not get a second chance. The wounded carry scars that do not heal.
Just weeks ago, a driver in the Bronx struck five people and ran. “The suspect allegedly fled the scene after the crash, which injured several pedestrians” reported CBS New York. The street was left with blood and broken glass. The driver was gone.
A month before, another driver killed a pedestrian and vanished into the night. “Police are searching for a driver who allegedly fled after striking and killing a pedestrian in the Bronx early Saturday morning” wrote CBS New York. The city keeps searching. The family waits for answers.
Who Pays the Price?
Cars and SUVs do the most harm. Since 2022, they have killed five, seriously injured seventeen, and hurt hundreds more. Trucks and buses have killed two. Motorcycles and mopeds, one. Bikes, none. The most vulnerable—pedestrians, cyclists, children—pay the highest price. The street does not forgive mistakes. It does not care who had the light or who wore a helmet. It only takes.
Leadership: Rivera’s Record
State Senator Gustavo Rivera has not been silent. This year, he co-sponsored and voted yes on the Stop Super Speeders Act, a bill that would force repeat speeders to install speed-limiting devices according to Open States. He also backed bills to create safety zones and a pedestrian safety rating for vehicles. These are steps forward. But the blood on the street says it is not enough. The carnage continues. The clock is still ticking.
What Next: No More Waiting
Every day of delay means another family shattered. Call Senator Rivera. Call your council member. Demand a citywide 20 mph speed limit. Demand real consequences for repeat offenders. Join Transportation Alternatives and Families for Safe Streets. Do not wait for another name to be added to the list.
