Personal injury accidents remain a key focus for safety initiatives in Montclair. According to Montclair Police Department data reported in early 2024, the total number of motor vehicle crashes in 2023 was 1,361, falling within the consistent annual range of 1,300 to 1,500 crashes observed over the previous 15 years. Preliminary figures reported in April 2025 indicated a slight increase to 1,398 total crashes in 2024. Despite public perception, police officials noted in early 2024 that the overall number of incidents, including those involving pedestrians, had not seen a significant increase compared to pre-pandemic levels, with pedestrian crashes specifically trending downward from pre-COVID numbers at that time. Official analysis highlights that many pedestrian-involved crashes occur during daylight hours in clear weather, often involving factors like left-turn conflicts and failure to yield right-of-way at intersections.
Detailed information from Montclair’s Vision Zero Task Force, using data from January 1, 2021, through December 31, 2023, sheds light on the severity of accidents. During this three-year period, Montclair recorded 5 fatal crashes and 22 crashes that resulted in suspected serious injuries. State Attorney General data further specified that of the five fatalities in Montclair during this timeframe, three involved pedestrians, one involved a bicyclist, and one involved an overturned vehicle. The township maintains a public “Crash/Injury Fatalities Map,” which identifies specific locations and road segments with higher concentrations of crashes resulting in injury, pinpointing areas like the intersections of Park Street & Bellevue Avenue and Lackawanna Plaza/Gates Avenue & Bloomfield Avenue as having notable crash volumes involving injuries or fatalities during that period.
