Half of New York City's top speeders were found driving recklessly in Brooklyn in 2025, according to new analysis from the nonprofits Transportation Alternatives and Families For Safe Streets.
The worst super speeder in New York City likes to drive around Sheepshead Bay and Gravesend, and received 259 tickets in the five boroughs and paid over $60,000 in fines, the nonprofits said.
“These Super Speeders blast their cars and trucks through New York City’s neighborhood streets at deadly speeds every day, getting caught hundreds of times a year, undeterred," said Ben Furnas, executive director of Transportation Alternatives. "Together, their reign of terror touches almost every corner of the city. It's time for Albany to act to slow these super speeders down and protect New York families."
More than 2.5 million New Yorkers live within a 5-minute walk of an intersection that top 10 super speeders were caught blasting through, the nonprofits found. In 2025, the top 10 super speeders in New York State each received an average of 179 speed camera tickets, with the most reckless driver receiving 259.
Fines are also not deterring super speeders. The top super speeder paid off more than $60,000 in fines, and four others have paid off all or a majority of their fines accrued over the years, ranging from $10,200 - $20,300 each. The other five have paid off little or none, and owe, on average, $19,400 each — a total of $97,000, the data revealed.
Several other top speeders like to drive recklessly in East New York, Midwood and Flatbush. The advocates urged state lawmakers to pass the Stop Super Speeders bill, which would require drivers with 16 speeding tickets in a single year to have a speed limiter installed on their car, automatically limiting their vehicle to within 5 mph of the speed limit of any given road.
“We know that this especially reckless minority of drivers are undeterred by tickets, and we can’t sit by and wait for one of them to kill someone’s loved one," said Darnell Sealy-McCrorey, a member of Families for Safe Streets, who lost a daughter to a reckless driver. "Albany must pass the Stop Super Speeders bill as part of the final budget to ensure these reckless super speeders finally slow down and stop terrorizing our neighborhoods.”
