The DOH added Web links to NycCarAccident.net in August 2012, one for recreational cyclists, one for delivery cyclists. (Thanks to Comptroller John Liu’s office.)

Both links have since been deleted. Apparently, the Department of Health does not regard car crashes as a public health issue.

Nor does the NYC Department of Transportation say a word about what to do in a crash.
