About these crash totals
Counts come from NYC police crash reports (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 the official definitions in the NYPD dataset.
- Crashes: number of police‑reported collisions (all road users).
- All injuries: total injured people in those crashes.
- Moderate / Serious: subcategories reported by officers (e.g., broken bones vs. life‑threatening trauma).
- Deaths: people who died due to a crash.
Change badges (arrows and percentages) compare the selected window with the same period last year whenever we have enough history. The “From 2022” view compares today’s totals with the earlier multi-year span. When a comparison window isn’t available the badge shows an em dash.
Notes: Police reports can be corrected after initial publication. Minor incidents without a police report are not included.

Greenpoint crosswalks and bike lanes under siege in 4‑day streak
In four days in 301, eight crashes left walkers and cyclists bleeding. Elders hit in crosswalks. Riders doored and mowed down by turning and speeding drivers.
Greenpoint and East Williamsburg just took eight crashes in four days. No one died. That does not read as safety.
A 72‑year‑old man crossed Nassau with the light. A distracted driver turned left and cut him down. On Manhattan Avenue, a woman’s lower leg was torn open. Broadway saw a speeding driver plow a cyclist and another SUV driver blow a signal into a rider’s skull. McGuinness and Humboldt added doorings that sent cyclists to the pavement with head and internal wounds. Bedford and Lorimer brought a failed‑to‑yield SUV into a marked crosswalk.
Leaders in community district 301 can slow turns, add protected bike lanes, and make 20 MPH the rule on these streets. Residents can push them now.
- 8 crashes in last 4 days
- 2 serious injuries
Nov 21 → Nov 25, 2025
Push leaders in 301 to fix the dangerous streets.
Recent severe collisions
- A northbound sedan driver hit a 33‑year‑old woman off Grand Street on Manhattan Ave. She stayed conscious. Her lower leg was torn. Parked SUVs were damaged. Police listed no clear cause.
- On Broadway at Lorimer, a northbound SUV driver blew the signal and drove into an eastbound cyclist. The rider’s head poured blood. Police recorded traffic control disregard and failure to yield by the driver.
- Driver turned left on Nassau and hit a 72-year-old man crossing with the signal. Police logged distraction and failure to yield. The man went down with arm injuries. Brooklyn twilight. Sirens. Another walker paid.
