There is a parole office across the street from us. We are a construction company that has active loading docks that are in constant use through out the day, especially in the morning. These people with their "State of NY Police" placards park right in front of our garage doors causing our business to come to a stop. The nerve and total disregard is pathetic and we are outraged with the situation.

Not only does the USPS employee park on the sidewalk, but she is using somebody else's placard.

In general, the workers at this post office (Peter Stuyvesant Station) break the law daily with their cars -- parking on sidewalks, double parking, parking in No Parking Anytime zones, and, apparently, providing copies of USPS placards to local residents to enable more illegal parking.

Oh, and customer service at this post office is terrible.

Somebody give this guy a map, and a clue.

Parked on the sidewalk and in the crosswalk.

This driver was a real piece of work -- parked in front of a fire hydrant, and his/her dashboard festooned with all sorts of placards, stickers and whatnot, as if they were talismans attempting to ward off the evil Traffic Enforcement gods. They included:

* Handicapped placard: not valid for parking in front of hydrants
* Cabrini Physician placard: not valid on this street, sorry
* HHC placard: again, you don't get to park in front of a hydrant with this
* various Fraternal Order of Police and semi-official-looking NYPD stickers, all of which mean zilch

And please don't tell me this person was on an emergency call -- this car is here everyday.

A well-known attorney involved in a battle for leadership of the Bronx Democratic Party used a bogus firefighter placard to park illegally, The Post has learned.

Lawyer Stanley Schlein was spotted parked in a crosswalk outside the Bronx Supreme Courthouse twice earlier this month, with a Uniformed Firefighters Association placard displayed on his dashboard, according to photos obtained by The Post.

He got away with the infraction once, but a source close to Schlein said the lawyer ended up receiving a $115 violation during one of the courthouse visits.

The placard reads "Active Firefighter," but Schlein is not a firefighter. He received it from a friend at the union because "he is a strong supporter of the UFA," the source said, declining to be identified.

The city's Department of Transportation does not honor parking placards distributed by law-enforcement unions - only those given out by Mayor Bloomberg - but police often turn a blind eye to illegally parked cars with fire- or police-union cards on the dashboards.

Parked illegally in "No Standing Zone", next to school, 2 malls and in between 2 merging streets where a lady was struck down by a car, blinded by the illegals 2 years ago.

Placard on dash indicates that this driver knew that a law was being broken and the driver was conspiring with on duty officers to deliberately evade enforcement of the law.

This is illegal parking elevated to racketeering.

Illegally parked in "No Standing Zone" next to school, 2 malls and between 2 merging streets. Creating blind spots and safety hazards for all who pass by this vehicle left by a selfish, arrogant, law breaker to save themselves a little time and money.

Chronic lack of enforcement of city's laws and ordinances by 110th make this a very attractive spot to break the law and a very dangerous spot to have to navigate past.

No speed bump is present to curtail aggression triggered speeding by drivers after they clear the congestion point created by thoughtless drivers such as this one. This poses extra risk to the kids who chronically jay walk in the neighborhood.

Why should those who volunteered to enforce the law - deliberately break it and endanger others for such small rewards to themselves?

In addition, the placard is for a different license plate number than the plate on the car.

When he and his lady friend saw the flash of my camera, he made a bee line back to remove his placard. Sure sign of pre-meditation guilt.

It's not at 1st ave and 20th st

Parked in the crosswalk and on the sidewalk.

OCCB-NBMN setting a good example.

Deliberately pulled up, illegally parked, then placed placard with PBA card attached on front, obscuring information. Placard may not be legitimate as no watermark from official seal seen on placard itself. Note the lamination of placard.

Parked illegally under "No Standing Anytime" signage, between 2 merging streets, adjacent to school facility and 2 malls. Male driver and female companion exited this shiny new yellow Hummer H2 and then walked arm in arm to Queens Place Mall leaving the safety hazard to endanger any who passed by the illegally parked Hummer.

Once again, the black Cadillac belonging to a City Councilmember was illegally parked in a no parking zone on 31st Street near Ditmars Blvd. in Astoria, Queens, directly in front of Citibank. This seems to be an almost daily occurrence. The car was there for at least a half hour before 6 pm, when no parking rules no longer apply at this location.

Illegally parked next to school, 2 malls and between 2 merging streets. This is a no standing anytime zone. This selfish driver endangers all in the vicinity of his illegal act.

The placard could be fake - there is no plate number or placard number visible on the placard.

Of course, he is safe from summons or tow as the 110th has shown it self to be deliberately derelict in its duty to police safety hazards in this area in the past.

These photos were taken on Sunday Aug.10, 2008 at 11:40 AM at the corner of Blackstone Ave. and West 237th St. in the "No Parking" zone next to 3701 Henry Hudson Parkway (The Georgian), Bronx NY 10463, the Riverdale co-op building that is the home to NY State Assemblyman Jeffrey Dinowitz. He parks illegally in this spot on a regular basis. His office is located at 3107 Kingsbridge Avenue, more than 2 and a half miles away.

WASHINGTON — Want to park free on the streets of Manhattan, without fear of having to pay tickets? Go to work for the federal government.

In fact, according to the House Transportation Committee, if you have a federal car, you do not have to confine yourself to the streets; you can even park on the sidewalks.

"Essentially, all of Lower Manhattan is a free parking lot for government vehicles," said a report by the committee staff, which also found that the city's Police Department and various city and state agencies are among the top parking-ticket scofflaws.

Clerks and aides using spots set aside for judges at Borough Hall

Ward for News

A guard stands watch over a temporary parking lot in a corner of Columbus Park in front of the Brooklyn Civil Court building. The special lot is supposed to be available to judges only.

A temporary parking lot in a park around Borough Hall has drawn more than just the judges who have been fighting for the controversial spots, Brooklyn News has learned.

Among the 30 drivers who have used the temporary space in Columbus Park while a lot is being constructed for the judges in another part of the park, about half are secretaries, law clerks, court aides and others, a sampling of cars surveyed by Brooklyn News found.

"It should only be judges," said Brooklyn Heights Association office manager Irene Janner, one of many residents outraged even by the judges' use of public space.

"Judges are the ones that raised this whole big stink about their security," Janner continued. "That doesn't hold for the other 50% of those cars."

Brooklyn News found there were fewer judges parked in the lot last week - a 7% decrease since an earlier survey. In March, the Daily News found that of 44 cars, 60% were registered to judges. Last week, of the 30 vehicles, 53% were registered to judges.

I saw this today on E 45th, between 2nd and third ave in front of the Amish market and had a good laugh with another guy. Why does a court person have a permit to park their porsche on the street......isn't the mere fact that this person is driving an $80,000 plus car enough to ask why they get to park for free? And....if that's how much we are paying our public servants, it's no wonder the city is broke.

NYPD parks illegally to shop next to school, 2 malls and in midst of merging traffic.
This is location of an injury accident with one of the contributing factors being the safety risks of parked cars here.

Here come the judges - and their cars.

What was billed as a temporary compromise over judicial parking in park around Borough Hall angered Brooklynites when dozens of judges moved their cars from the south side to the north side Thursday.

"We are outraged. This is a public plaza. Why can't the judges use the curb spaces they already have?" said Judy Stanton, executive director of the Brooklyn Heights Association. "We used to walk through this plaza; now we have to walk around it."

The judges were parked Thursday on a landscaped plaza complete with benches next to the popular farmer's market.

The move was prompted after city Parks Department officials and judges worked out what they called a compromise that required what they say will be two months of construction.

Downtown residents have complained for years about judges stowing their cars in Columbus Park next to Borough Hall. The issue came to a head last spring when judges threatened to sue and park advocates protested.

The compromise allows the judges to keep the parking lot inside Columbus Park but requires them to move off the walkway. Two months of construction forced the judges to be moved to the other side of the plaza surrounding Borough Hall and the old Supreme Court building.

"It's really another example of the judges given an inch and taking a mile," said Wiley Norvell of Transportation Alternatives, which has been battling the judges. "We're not happy with the compromise. It's highly suspect."

This fella puts a clip on id for Volunteers Involved in Public Safety from Minnesota on dash. No problem says 110th, park all day and no summons from us. We are very proficient at allowing folks to break the law. We wouldn't want to get an ink stain on our finger.
