Fire Hydrants are not Personal Parking Spaces

1597 Lexington Ave, Manhattan. Observed by ColorSopNYC on Wed, Sep 21 2011

Main_post_26340 Ribbon_hazard

This BMW is CONSTANTLY parked in front of our building, directly obstructing the fire hydrant on the avenue side. Not a one-time occurrence--she continually parks there, day and night--I watched her park there this morning. Sometimes blocks the whole hydrant altogether. Leaves the car unattended, probably all day, and into the evening. NOT OK.


NYPD Parked next to hydrant, doesn't move on off-side parking days

28th Avenue and Crescent St., Queens. Observed by Smyligerl on Thu, Sep 08 2011

This Jeep has been making it a habit to park in Astoria, Queens just two feet away from a fire hydrant near my building practically all week. He also doesn't move on off-side parking days, so the street cleaner has to move around him. The street cleaner told my husband that he won't get a ticket, but we can complain to 311. There's an NYPD Bronx placard in the window. Perhaps they feel entitled to park there. They apparently never get tickets for off-side parking violations or for parking within two feet of a hydrant. When I call 311 to file a complaint, the Jeep disappears and then returns within a few hours to the same spot. Flagrant abuse of the privilege of being on the NYPD force and blatantly inconsiderate of the safety fellow NYC residents.

NY's Finest have continually used the Horace Harding Expwy service road as well as Junction Blvd from 59th Ave up to 62nd Ave (No Standing Anytime)as their personal parking spaces while there are more than an adequate amount of metered parking and garages to accommodate the neighborhood's entire population

Parking scandal and this is how they behave???

13th precinct, Manhattan. Observed by Truth on Thu, Apr 21 2011

Main_post_23555 Ribbon_hazard

There's a parking scandal all over the news. Cops might be losing their jobs for fixing tickets. And this is how they're going to behave???

This has been going on outside the 13th Precinct and all around the Academy forever, but when is enough enough? Even with a scandal they think they can get away with breaking the law? Isn't blocking a fire hydrant, and the crosswalk, and leaving only 3 feet of the sidewalk all at the same time just going way too far?

I guess they don't have to fix tickets they never write. Do they think nobody is going to look at this? Do they really believe they're going to keep getting away with breaking the law?

I want my sidewalk back! I'm tired of seeing cops parked at fire hydrants!

Why isn't the New York Times writing about this? The real scandal is that cops are breaking the law in broad daylight, and they act like nobody can do anything about it. Is this a democracy? Do we have freedom of the press? What is going on here???

Forget what the Donald said about La Guardia Airport. These cops make New York look like a third world country!!!

Unreformed Dirty Five-Two

decatur and 205th, Bronx. Observed by norwoodcitizen on Wed, Apr 13 2011

Main_post_23473 Ribbon_hazard

It doesn't look like getting rid of the Deputy Inspector troubles by multiple scandals did anything to improve the integrity of the dishonest cops in the Dirty Five-Two.

Why is it so hard to find a few honest cops in New York City? Other cities actually have law enforcement officers that enforce the law instead of breaking it all day every day in public!

[moderator's note: this NYPD Restricted permit has two license plate numbers written in, which is also a no-no]


"NYC Sheriff" Placard used as all day parking pass

greene street and 8th street, Manhattan. Observed by Jessa on Tue, Apr 05 2011

Main_post_23330 Ribbon_fake

I suspect this guy is an NYU employee. He is parked on Greene street near 8th Street in one of the Muni-meter pay spots every weekday from 6am-6pm. He has had at least two different "Sheriff" permits numbered #700 and #800. I reported him to 311 but they said they could not tell me when the case is resolved. Obviously it's not. He's still there. Parks in the same space every day. I looked at the list of approved permits, and I don't even see a Sheriff permit listed. His license plate is also not govt issued, its just a regular plate.


Aww. Today he had to share his illegal parking.

NYPD Transit Unit (Unit 869) placard abuser is back, but somebody from the 81st Precinct took his prime spot, and he had to move back a space. But don't worry, he's still illegally parked.
