Illegally parked across from Au Bon Pain - donuts are calling 911. This at Muni Meter in commercial zone.

A black Cadillac with City Council plates was parked illegally at an expired parking meter outside the CVS Pharmacy at 22-80 31st Street in Astoria, Queens, NY, on Wednesday, June 25th, 2008 at 5:57 pm.

Is there a CUNY campus on east 4th Street?
Is there a CUNY campus in Miami?

How does a vehicle that is supposed to have its registration transferred to local area within 10 days get a nice, laminated CUNY permit?

Didnt anyone notice the out-of-state plates?

Is the coffee strong enough on 5th street or are they all still groggy?

This car with a Mayor's Office placard was parked at an expired meter, contrary to the regulations posted on the signs.

This was on Broadway at 70th today. No money in the meter. No precinct or emergency nearby. Keeps the decal under the seat and tosses it up their to run errands.

I do not know about the seaworthiness of the placard. I just know its official abuse of privilege.

20th pct. I believe

I observed this vehicle parked on 86th Street between 1st and 2nd Avenues in Manhattan on three separate occasions (in front of 305-315 East 86th Street ). This is a muni meter block. The first time I observed this vehicle parked without a muni meter receipt on its dashboard, I advised a police officer who was ticketing another vehicle at that location. He identified himself as Officer Reyes of the 19th Precinct. He said it was in his discretion to ticket vehicles and he refused to ticket that vehicle and left on his bicycle with two other officers on bicycles. The second time I observed this vehicle parked without a muni meter receipt occurred tonight at the same location. I advised a NYPD Traffic Officer who was checking muni meter receipts at that location. Officer Feroz, badge number 2212, informed me that "We do not ticket cars with police signs" on their dashboard. I pointed out to him, in the presence of a witness, that the police permit on the dash was from the 75th Precinct located in Brooklyn, that the license plate of the vehicle did not match the permit number, that there is no police precinct located on the block, and that I observed the vehicle illegally parked previously. Officer Feroz walked away. Today, this vehicle was once again parked in front of 305-315 East 86th Street without a muni meter receipt during a time when muni meter receipts are required.

Not a recognized permit, not an official agency, not even a real state. Kidding about that PA.

But really, what's the deal!

That "permit" doesn't grant you any parking privileges, dude.

City losing money to subsidize this BMW. Seems like good street management to me.

Hey New York, the windows are broken again, time to clean house.

Starting with City Hall and 1PP

If the coffee guy can get a decent restricted permit, wouldn't a chief have more than a PBA card?

Classify this under the Law of Dash Accumulation: whosoever layeth multiple and sundry items meant to convey officialdom on the dash is full of it.

Man, you can buy those cute little dash lights on www.galls.com for $40.
That's one of the most ridiculous attempts at impersonating a police officer I've seen, and somehow it passes muster???

That's a bunch of muni-meter money going the way of the dodo, too.

Overtime hours at the Commerce Bank

NYPL vehicle always parks at the commercial muni-meter for the day and doesn't put a dime in. Crazy thing is, the permit was printed on a home printer, no decals, seals, etc. And they don't get ticketed?

Project Renewal owns a number of vans. Their permits allow them to park for up to 1 hour at a meter without paying. The meters on 2nd Avenue are in effect until 10:00 PM. These vans are routinely parked in the afternoon and left overnight. Some days they do not move. They are routinely parked on a Friday afternoon and not moved until the following Monday. They do not move for street cleaning which happens Monday through Saturday on 2nd Avenue. How are the local businesses supposed to earn the tax money which funds Project Renewal if the meters do not turn over for cars to use? Traffic agents will not ticket these, even when the violation is pointed out to them.

This car was parked in a zone marked No Standing through 10:00 am, with metered parking at 10:00 am, at about 10:01. The meter reads "00:00".

In this NO PERMIT ZONE, this irresponsible lawbreaker parks on a hydrant and blocks an intersection - a school bus was blocked for 15-20 minutes. If that bus were a FIRE TRUCK, injury or death could easily have occurred as a result of illegal parking.
