Do you ever read the news out of NYC and wonder why so many pedestrians are hit and also killed by vehicles yet nothing gets done?

We have been perplexed by this too. People obviously mess up driving in NYC, whether it be speeding, or not paying attention or perhaps turning against a light and running someone down. In NYC those injured really get no justice. The NYPD's Transportation Bureau Accident Investigation Squad just doesn't do all that much to actually investigate driving malfeasance. The young tourist who had her leg ripped off by the cab driver who was in a fit of road rage? Yeah, the city didn't do anything to him. Nothing. For a really depressing read about a department that is either run by incompetents or just the lazy and disaffected who hate filling out paperwork, check out this Gothamist story. 

Really, it seems like they just don't care about dead or injured people. Almost like they are an inconvenience.
