Recent win: Ye Shall Know Their Names! Meet the Dirty Dozen City Pols Who Voted Against Speed Camera Program

Pirozzolo Criticizes Safety Boosting Speed Camera Program
👎 Negative
2025-06-23 · Leadership · Streetsblog NYC · ↓ hurts grade
Eleven city lawmakers voted no on speed cameras. Their votes keep streets exposed. Pedestrians and cyclists lose a shield. Reckless drivers win. The city’s most basic defense—rejected. The toll will be measured in blood, not words.
Pirozzolo votes no, opposing safer school speed zones for children.
👎 Negative
2025-06-17 · Vote · Open States · ↓ hurts grade
Senate passes S 8344. School speed zone rules in New York City get extended. Lawmakers make technical fixes. The bill keeps pressure on drivers near schools. Streets stay a little safer for kids.
Pirozzolo votes yes to weaken bus rules, increasing pedestrian and cyclist risk.
👎 Negative
2025-06-16 · Vote · Open States · ↓ hurts grade
Senate passed S 7785. The bill carves out large Mitchell-Lama housing from bus traffic rules. Lawmakers voted yes. The carve-out weakens enforcement. Streets grow less safe for people on foot and bike.
Pirozzolo votes no, opposing a bill that would improve school zone safety.
👎 Negative
2025-06-16 · Vote · Open States · ↓ hurts grade
White Plains gets speed cameras near schools. Lawmakers move fast. Most vote yes. Cameras catch drivers who endanger kids. Program ends 2030. Streets may slow. Danger faces children every day.

Recent win: A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to vehicles reported as abandoned to the department of sanitation: Council passes

Carr co-sponsors school access obstruction ban; overall safety remains neutral.
• Neutral
2025-07-14 · Sponsor · NYC Council – Legistar
Introduced bill makes it a misdemeanor to block or physically stop students, staff, or university employees from attending classes or meetings. It targets shoving, blocking entrances, threatening conduct within 15 feet, and property damage. Penalty: up to $1,000 fine or six months jail.
Carr votes yes to remove abandoned vehicles, boosting street safety.
👍 Positive
2025-06-30 · Vote · NYC Council – Legistar · ↑ helps grade
Council orders swift removal of abandoned, derelict cars. Streets clear in 72 hours. No plates, no stickers, no excuses. Police and sanitation must act. Safer crossings for all who walk, ride, or wait.
Carr votes yes on taxi dooring warning decals, no major safety change.
• Neutral
2025-05-01 · Vote · NYC Council – Legistar
Council passes law. Taxis and for-hire cars must post bold warnings on rear doors. Riders face the message: look for cyclists before swinging the door. A move to cut dooring. City acts. Cyclists stay in the crosshairs.
Carr votes yes, boosting street safety transparency and project accountability.
👍 Positive
2025-04-10 · Vote · NYC Council – Legistar · ↑ helps grade
Council passed a law forcing DOT to post sharp, regular updates on street safety projects. Progress on bike lanes, bus lanes, and signals must go public. No more hiding delays or cost overruns. The city must show its work.
