He is one of 36 people killed on streets in Senate District 34 since 2022, in 9,159 crashes that hurt 5,528 people NYC Open Data.
Not one crash. A pattern.
In the past 12 months, 10 people were killed here. Year to date, 8 people have died, with 1,471 injured NYC Open Data.
This is how it looks at street level:
- Feb 3, 2025, White Plains Rd at Wood Ave: a 75‑year‑old man crossing with the signal was hit and killed by a left‑turning BMW SUV; police recorded failure to yield by the driver NYC Open Data.
- Dec 6, 2024, St Raymond Ave at Seddon St: a woman walking was killed by a left‑turning pickup; police recorded failure to yield and driver distraction NYC Open Data.

The levers already exist
Albany moved a bill to choke off repeat speeding. The Senate’s Stop Super Speeders Act (S 4045) would require speed‑limiting tech for drivers with 11 DMV points in 18 months or 16 camera tickets in a year Open States. Senator Nathalia Fernández, who represents this area, voted yes in committee on Jun 11 and Jun 12, 2025 Open States.
Speed enforcement stays on the books too; she also voted yes to extend school speed zones in June 2025 Open States.
City Hall has another tool: lower the default speed limit. New Yorkers have asked for it. The steps are laid out here: Take Action.
What now
The man on the Bruckner is gone. The road is the same.
Tell your lawmakers to use the tools they have. Ask the City to slow the streets and the State to rein in repeat speeders. Start here: Take Action.
