Reported by Kirsten Davis in yesterday's Daily News, the traffic death tally for 2007 was 271 in New York City.
136 pedestrians were killed.
77 drivers and passengers were killed.
23 bicyclists were killed.
35 motorcyclists were killed.
The report failed to mention how many times charges were filed. Department of Transportation Commissioner Janette Sadik-Khan said, "We're going to do whatever we can to make those streets less intimidating and less chaotic.", and I thank her for her efforts—much remains to be done.
