Hudson River Greenway at 46th Street (in front of the Intrepid)

Three cyclists have died in crashes in three weeks. Honor them and call on the City to enforce dangerous driver behavior and design safe streets for cycling.

23-year-old filmmaker Derek Lake was killed by a truck on June 26 amidst the construction on Houston Street and LaGuardia Place. Dr. Carl Nacht, 56, passed away the same day following a brief hospitalization after an NYPD tow truck failed to yield to him on the West Side Greenway on June 22. On June 5, 41-year-old Donna Goodson was killed by a truck on Rockaway Parkway in Brooklyn.
