New York City Council District 39 in Brooklyn, covering Park Slope, Windsor Terrace–South Slope, Kensington, Carroll Gardens–Cobble Hill–Gowanus–Red Hook, and Prospect Park.

What does the data show for District 39 since 2022?

City records show 15 people killed and 2,567 injured in crashes across the district between Jan 1, 2022 and Aug 31, 2025. Hotspots include the BQE, Ocean Pkwy, Union St, and Caton Ave.

How were these numbers calculated?

We used NYC Open Data’s Motor Vehicle Collisions datasets (Crashes, Persons, Vehicles). We filtered for incidents within Council District 39 from 2022-01-01 to 2025-08-31 and tallied deaths and injuries across modes. Hourly patterns, hotspots, and example crashes come from the same datasets. You can open a reproducible filtered query [here](https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Public-Safety/Motor-Vehicle-Collisions-Crashes/h9gi-nx95). Data accessed Aug 31, 2025.

We're a tool for helping hold local politicians and other actors accountable for their failure to protect you when you're walking or cycling in NYC. We update our site constantly to provide you with up to date information on what's happening in your neighborhood.

Who can act on fixes right now?

The City Council can pass daylighting and curb-extension bills (Int 1138-2024 and Int 0285-2024). In Albany, legislators can advance speed limiters for repeat offenders, as urged at a Brooklyn rally after a fatal crash.

The three blocks below show direct costs, other harm, and the total for crashes with injuries, crashes without injuries, and all crashes together.

Loading estimate...

How we calculate this

We calculate these costs using a method developed by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, or NHTSA. It gives one set of costs for crashes with injuries and another for crashes with no reported injuries.

Crashes with injuries cost much more because the method includes things like lost work, medical care, and long-term harm. NHTSA says crash costs include "lost productivity, medical, legal and court costs, emergency service, insurance administration, congestion, property damage, and workplace losses."

These are estimates, not bills. "Other harm" is the part of the broader estimate that goes beyond direct bills and insurance claims. It captures pain, disability, and lost quality of life.

A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to requiring the New York city police department to provide the civilian complaint review board with direct access to officer body-warn camera footage and to establish related procedures

Greater CCRB access to body‑camera footage can improve accountability and reduce biased or harmful traffic enforcement against pedestrians and cyclists, supporting equity and willingness to walk/bike. Effects on crash prevention and driver behavior are indirect and likely modest.

Int. 1421-2025 would widen outdoor dining: let grocery stores apply for sidewalk licenses, allow roadway cafes year-round, expand frontage for some cafes, and speed approvals. Committee laid it over on Nov. 24, 2025.

Int 1421-2025 would let restaurants and grocery stores run sidewalk and roadway cafes in curb or parking lanes year‑round. It speeds reviews, sets $1,050 fees and four‑year terms, and pushes dining closer to moving traffic — raising risks for pedestrians and cyclists.
A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to expanding access to roadway and sidewalk cafes
• Neutral
2025-10-09 · Sponsor · NYC Council – Legistar
Year‑round expansion of roadway/sidewalk cafes can calm traffic and create buffers that benefit pedestrians, but also risks obstructing sidewalks, complicating winter operations, and creating conflicts near bike lanes. Net safety effects for vulnerable users hinge on strict clear-path, loading, and bike-lane protection rules and enforcement.
