This week was World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims, celebrated the third Sunday of November each year, to remember the many millions killed and injured on the world's roads. This day has even be adopted by the UN General Assembly as the appropriate acknowledgement for victims of road traffic crash and their families. A march occurred this week from City Hall Park to the United Nations to raise awareness for the victims of traffic accidents. Mayor de Blasio was there too, to promote his Vision Zero initiative. There is some argument that it is working: there have been 197 fatalities on the roads this year in New York City, 109 of which were pedestrians. We at Feldman, Kronfeld & Beatty stand in solidarity with those marching in support of safe streets and championing justice for those who have been injured or killed by automobiles.
