Here we have Latte Lucy still getting away with a pile of scrap paper parking daily in a NO PARKING zone,

With the $7200.00 she saves annually on garage parking she didn't need as she parked for free on the street she bought a new car.

See her old car here 4 and 5 years earlier.
Nice racket when enforcement sucks as it truly does. Just too much work to make an observation daily when there are easy pickens.

No permit number, no plate number on placard, not FDNY, the UFA's placard entitles them to nothing under ANY circumstances - and - even if they were - illegally parked. Yet 3 different enforcement agencies - Sanitation, parking enforcement, and regular NYPD ignore it.

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.

So, let me get this straight...

This placard does not have the identifying information filled out, but the officers of the Five-Two didn't notice the placard was blank? Maybe they didn't notice that there was a vehicle parked right, directly below the NO PARKING ANYTIME sign. Right on the awkward island in the middle of traffic?

I know! Maybe nobody drove down the Grand Concourse all day?

Yeah... there really is no explanation, and no excuse!

There is no way they don't see this regular parked illegally.

There is not way they haven't noticed yet the placard doesn't match the license plate.

It's been reported to them, just in case they were so oblivious they couldn't see it for themselves.

There is no plausible excuse left for this vehicle to continue parking illegally, where a self-enforcement placard would not apply, with a placard that is not even issued to this vehicle.

No excuse, that is, except for a deliberate and voluntary violation of the law by the Precinct itself.

The Dirty Five-Two shows more grime every day!

Things have gotten a little better (there has actually been some enforcement!)

Still - there are some who haven't gotten the message. Probably because they're not getting the tickets.

This one doesn't even have the right placard in the vehicle! Of course, none of the cops driving by bothered to look...

The dirty cops are making it hard to get to the park, blocking the horrible entrances DOT won't improve (no sidewalks, no crosswalks, who cares about hundreds of kids...)

This one has the wrong placard while parked in a NO STANDING zone. And the marked squad car drove right by without doing a darn thing!

If they won't do their job, start firing them. Maybe then they'll start taking their responsibilities seriously!!!

Last time I saw this was well over a year ago. Just last night I saw it again parked on the same block. So this morning I called New York City Department of Transportation, and two different representatives confirmed that there are only two valid parking permits issued by and to be used in New York City: the white rectangular shape placard with the big blue disability logo in the middle which you display on your dashboard for both on and off street parking, and the blue tag that hangs behind your rear mirror for off street parking. Anything other than these two are not issued by New York City. If you look closely at this picture, it seems like another copy was right behind the first one before it was laminated. So what is this and who issued it? I would really like to know.

The placard abuse continues at Park East Synagogue by the same individual with the same Cadillac with the obvious blessing of Inspector Murtagh and his gang of 19th precinct placard abusers. http://nyc.uncivilservants.org/post/index/11544

Here we see the Cadillac parked in the NO PARKING 7AM - 7 PM zone on the North side of East 68th Street between Lexington and 3rd Avenues using a bogus placard un-ticketed and untowed.

What does it take to finally deal with this individual?

As it stands in this area the only thing restrictive parking signs do is prevent local area residents from having some much needed curbside parking in their neighborhood while at the same time reserving spots for scofflaws.

The Park east abuse went so far as to embarrass Mayor Bloomberg in a story in the NY Post yet it continues in different forms to this day. Seems to me no surprise this kind of crap goes on around here as we have a police precinct commanded by someone who encourages his own people to violate placard parking rules themselves.

What community good is this serving and what quality of life benefit do residents get from this kind of illegal nonsense right next store to a police precinct I ask?

All such abused restricted parking areas which end up full of scofflaw vehicles due to lack of enforcement should be returned to the community as normal street parking and make an end to it. In every area that was done the problem was solved.

I'm a REAL FEDERAL LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER and have recently noticed this phony parked in front of my apartment building on a regular basis. Ironically, I received a $95 parking ticket last week when I stupidly parked in the loading/unloading zone for 15 minutes with my civilian rental car, but this dope parks here all the time! Hey NYPD! WAKE UP!

This vechicle parked on a street restricted to commerical traffic on Saturday caught my attention with placard, photo ID and badge prominently displayed on the dash board. They were issued by New York State Troopers PBA Police Surgeons Group. Not to my surprise, this was the only vechicle that did not receive any parking ticket while all others did who parked on the same block without any permit. I researched online and found that by being a medical doctor of any specialty and paying the annual due of $350, you will receive a placard, a photo ID and a badge customized for you and your vehicle. That's a drop in the bucket if you make six figures annually, right? By the way, the NYSTPBA does not check if your license plate is legit so you can use it on any vehicle. What a sweet deal.

According to the agreement that all eligible members must abide by, it states that "The ID card and placard will not be used to violate or abuse any municipal, vehicle & traffic laws, or penal laws." (quoted from http://www.pbadoctors.com/uploads/Surgeon_Application.pdf) I am not saying this medical doctor has broken any law since no one knows if he/she was dealing with real medical emergency, but I do want to share this with everyone here and let you decide for yourself.

If you or someone you know is a medical doctor and you despearately need a placard to park your car in the city, give this a try.

More photos about this can be found at http://www.photoworks.com/util/slideShow2.jsp;jsessionid=873C5BEA657700A89981E71AC17D40C1?stackID=58669888&cp=ems_shr_alb_pml&cb=PW&guest=true&toh=&svr=pw-web6

It is bad enough the Police themselves don't respect parking regulations and set the wrong standard http://nyc.uncivilservants.org/post/index/8525
or that FOX 5 somehow gets press placards for everyone from the Janitor to office staff and park all day. http://nyc.uncivilservants.org/post/index/8816 but this Park East situation already caused mayor Bloomberg to blow his stack and embarrassed the cb and the other elected officials and can only exist by the corrupt attitude of Inspector Murtagh who really does need to be removed from his position as commander of the 19th precinct. http://nyc.uncivilservants.org/post/index/3888

On non-school days on this block the fall back signage is NO PARKING 7AM - 7PM.

All I have is that the car is usually parked on a fire hydrant. The address that is always park at is on Dewey and Quincy about 50-75 feet from 2829 Dewey Ave. I know that this permit is fake, is definetely a photo copy, It folds the fake permit, so you dont get to see the other nypd logo. the sealed that nypd puts is usually on the right side the one the is clear, and then the other part is just a shield with the NYPD logo.

This Toyota Camry was parked on a Saturday during the time period restricted for commerical trucks. It had an expired NYPD parking permit with licence number partially covered by a NYPD PBA card, and the number did not match the license plate. I asked a traffic agent who skipped right through it why he did not ticket this car. He said in his own words "I have instruction" and that "the guy might be too busy to get the updated one." So now you know not to bother reporting to the city if you ever seen a car with the expired permit. Traffic agent does not care anyway and we as taxpayers will just have to pick up the tabs.

This car was parked by a woman with shopping bags, left in front of NO STANDING sign. Few days later I found the car parked on the same street just a few spots away from the original picture, also in front of the No STANDING ZONE.

This corner spot is illegal because it crosses the building line to the corner. People always get a ticket for this violation. Today is Monday 5-12-08 and this car has been parked here since at least Friday 5-9-08. It is a student car with school sticker on back windshield and student parking sticker on front windshield. Must be a cop's kid using the placard for their own use.

Nothing stops the City of New York from it's daily operations--not even a holiday like Easter Sunday. This official vehicle was seen driving around Ridge Blvd and Third Avenue in Brooklyn on a Sunday until it found parking in a residential neighborhood where it remained the rest of the day.

Repeat violator. This guy saves parking spots for his little Nissan with this Official Vehicle. Not only that, but it's been spotted taking up two parking spots in between two driveways at 92nd street and Ridge Blvd...He's been doing it for years!

Updated below...

Every weekday morning, a uniformed USPS driver swaps his personal car for a postal delivery truck, puts up the BOE placard on the dashboard of his now-parked car, and drives off in his postal delivery truck presumably on his daily route. There are no BOE offices anywhere near the post office where he works (which is catty corner from where he parks his car every day). He recently yelled at a motorcyclist to move because the motorcyclist was in "his spot."

!UPDATE!

I emailed the BOE last Thursday to report this apparent BOE placard violation and a nice woman started an investigation. I am happy to report that we just spoke, and the parking placard was in fact "valid" but the BOE revoked it due to abuse (it was obviously being misused). The car now has a fake-looking USPS "official business" placard up, as do several other cars pakred nearby. I am going to pursue this with the local USPS station and see what comes. But heck, one small victory!
