I honestly would never expect them to do that.

just when you think you seen the mother of all police stupidity, Monday afternoon they towed a Manhattan funeral homes minivan, with a body in it.

It was bad enough the dearly departed was summonsed to the hereafter ,only to get a summons as a parting shot by the ever alert P.D.

Hey LTS- was that your hubby in the Daily News yesterday?

You have to check this out. Here is a parking ticket warrior caught on camera writing a parking ticket to a member of the driving public returning to his vehicle with muni-meter receipt in hand

I wonder what people's opinion are of what occurred today.

Most people when ASP is over move their cars into the spot. I have notice that the majority of people start moving their cars around 10:15.

What I have noticed a lot are people parking their car at 10:15 and then heading off back home, to work, etc...

So, traffic cop lady started walking up Carroll Street and ticketing all the cars left unattended by their owners.


Pretty funny watching the block in a uproar!

FYI - I never leave my car until ASP is over for that exact reason.

i always wait in my car until at least 12:55.
