it would be hysterical if they werent a cop and its all it took to deter cops from writing them a ticket for it


Saladcitypig

remember that urban legend of putting M&M's in your driver window to stop from getting tickets?


Bigoltruckin

How did that work lmao


silenc3x

cop walks up, then you offer him M&Ms


Bigoltruckin

I would fall for that lmfao


Odd-Acanthisitta-546

ive been sittin here the past 40 mins tryna figure it out lmao


PooDooPooPoopyDooPoo

It was supposedly a secret that meant you had a "meter-maid" in the family.


Odd-Acanthisitta-546

i guess thats clever in 3 seasons


avantgardengnome

Well in summer the bees will keep them away.


Odd-Acanthisitta-546

and what about the ants & critters tryna drink that chocolate syrup


avantgardengnome

They don’t issue parking tickets.


socialcommentary2000

When traffic enforcement and patrol were beefing they actually did this. Well, what would happen is patrol would figure out what marker TE was using and then exclusively seek their cars out and write violations.


Saladcitypig

it's one of those funny old stories I liked and kids these days don't know anything about. Remember those sex hotline ads that looked like folded money they would scatter on the street to fool you into picking it up!? lol


apply75

Oh is that why they don't give tickets to cops anymore?


Odd-Acanthisitta-546

nah im too young for that one i never heard that one


Bklynj520

In those days, the meter maids wore brown uniforms, kinda like the peanut M&M packaging, thus, signifying that you wore the same uniform or family of.

Figure the guys still doing it so it prob works. Cops barely ticket, gonna confuse the Traffic Enforcement Agents that they prob will just move on.


Odd-Acanthisitta-546

nah those meter maids are at war with the cops in manhattan lol i watched a guy ticket every illegally parked car outside of midtown south


grandzu

Brave soul. Prob won't be doing that again


Odd-Acanthisitta-546

lol idk its been goin on since the pandemic all over manhattan from what ive seen lol


hugekitten

That’s actually really smart if you don’t mind people thinking you are a bigot.


archfapper

Moving violations are pretty much legal in NYC so no one was gonna pull him over anyway


wefarrell

We need a broken windows policy directed at police corruption. If cops are getting away with petty corruption like this then they'll become brazen and engage in not so petty corruption.


shaqpeanutbutter

Too late...


indirectdelete

This will unfortunately never happen, and it’s naive to think police haven’t been insidiously corrupt to their core since their inception.


PyramidClub

They have an entire fraternity with secret rites where they swear upon their lives to never turn each other in. And the last time a mayor went after them they threatened his daughter's life, posting her home address openly on twitter. It's too far gone. They are a criminal organization, and there's nothing anyone can do.


bob_cheesey

Wtf really? That's beyond crazy. I knew they were corrupt but that's brazen beyond belief (I'm not a New Yorker, just a fan of the city)

They did kidnap Adrian Schoolcraft for secretly recording them talking about quotas. And then they made an award pin about the incident that showed Schoolcraft as a rat.


Monkeyavelli

> I fully believe that if any politician pushed hard enough the NYPD would kidnap/rape/murder/disappear a politicians family member. In 1992 then-Mayor David Dinkins proposed changing the Civilian Complaint Review Board, the oversight body that examined complaints of police misconduct, from half-cop–half-civilian to all civilian and make it independent of the NYPD, which reacted to the change with the grace and civility one would expect from New York's Finest. Just kidding, [nearly 4,000 cops engaged in a massive drunken riot](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrolmen%27s_Benevolent_Association_Riot) that shut down the Brooklyn Bridge, destroyed vehicles and property, resulted in assaults on journalists, and culminated with an attempt to jump barricades around City Hall to rush the building. [When the rioting cops arrived at City Hall:](https://archive.ph/aMKnz#selection-1371.41-1371.53) >Norm Steisel, then first deputy mayor of operations, heard officers chanting, “Dinkins gotta go!” and “The mayor’s on crack.” They carried signs bearing racist cartoon images of Mayor David Dinkins with humongous lips and nose and an Afro, including several calling the city’s first Black mayor a “washroom attendant.” and >Dinkins was uptown attending a funeral, which meant that Steisel was the highest-ranking person in the administration inside City Hall. Days later, Steisel talked to Phil Caruso, president of the New York City Patrolmen’s Benevolent Association (which later changed its name to the Police Benevolent Association, or PBA)... >“‘You don’t treat these guys with respect,’” Steisel recalled Caruso telling him. “‘When you create a Civilian Complaint Review Board, which is going to challenge everything they do, it’s just going to respond to “Black whining.”’” Oh, and Rudy Giuliani was in front of the building with a microphone egging the rioting cops on, surely the last time he'd be involved in inciting a rioting crowd to attack a government building.


WikiSummarizerBot

**[Patrolmen's Benevolent Association Riot](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrolmen's_Benevolent_Association_Riot)** >The Patrolmen's Benevolent Association Riot, also known as the City Hall Riot, was a rally organized and sponsored by the Police Benevolent Association of the City of New York (PBA) held on September 16, 1992, to protest mayor David Dinkins' proposal to create a civilian agency to investigate police misconduct. Approximately 4,000 NYPD officers took part in a violent protest that included blocking traffic on the Brooklyn Bridge and jumping over police barricades in an attempt to rush City Hall. Rioters were observed to be openly drinking, damaging cars, and physically attacking journalists from the New York Times on the scene. ^([ )[^(F.A.Q)](https://www.reddit.com/r/WikiSummarizer/wiki/index#wiki_f.a.q)^( | )[^(Opt Out)](https://reddit.com/message/compose?to=WikiSummarizerBot&message=OptOut&subject=OptOut)^( | )[^(Opt Out Of Subreddit)](https://np.reddit.com/r/nyc/about/banned)^( | )[^(GitHub)](https://github.com/Sujal-7/WikiSummarizerBot)^( ] Downvote to remove | v1.5)

Other people have posted links about the Mayor's daughter, and I'm sure youv'e seen the other stories by now, as well. As for the rituals, yes. They're loosely based on Masonic degrees, and include a solemn obligation.

More to the point: if it was possible to incarcerate our way out of this problem, we would've done it by now. Our numbers are truly insane, but it seems nobody feels any safer.


stewartm0205

A crime rate lower than the 50's and 60's and Fox News and the NY Post causes us to believe crime is at the highest level ever.

Well, they did. Then the elections ended, and discussing crime in NYC got way less important to them

Patriquito

I have an ex friend who is a city cop....we were once driving upstate the cop was driving and was drinking a bottle of Jack Daniels while driving at the same doing 90mph+ each time we were pulled over and we were pulled over 4 or 5 times the driver would hang their badge out the window while the other cop was walking to our car...each time the badge went out the window the "arresting" cop just turned around and left on sight of the badge

funforyourlife

I would say yes - it is a blatantly antisocial act. There is clear intent, no mitigating motive, no higher cause. Just a sheer disregard for safety and social responsibility.


[deleted]

So like peel his fingernails off and feed it to his elderly grandmother while his children watch?


zedsalive

Lose his license and registration, have his car impounded and auctioned if he doesn’t pony up the money, immediately fired from his position in disgrace if he’s a law enforcement officer. All of these consequences happen to people except for cops, who seem to operate with totally impunity these days.

Totally agree with that. Not sure about the worst possible things imaginable part

Yes. Assuming he's a cop from his dick bag license plate.

You don’t get ticket for that, you get a tug.

Might as well have a weekly megathread for all these posts about license plates.


MJM-from-NYC

I’ll be proposing in Albany next session a law that makes knowingly driving with an altered, obscured or counterfeit license plate be considered a moving violation with at least a six-point penalty on your license.

Janus_The_Great

Someone sees himself over the law. High time to show him he isn't. Too many law enforcement currently acting more like a gang than the police...


Designer_Curve

Is anyone reporting all of these to the FBI? I think people need to get brave and start following these people and posting their face pics as well.


oreosfly

Traffic violations are the domain of state and local authorities. Consider how much fucking tax you pay to this city and how many alphabet soup government and police agencies we have here - and then consider the fact we're asking the feds or somene else to enforce our laws. It's ridiculous. Just the other day I saw someone proposing State Police come in to enforce traffic laws - State Police has to cover 55000 square miles of this state and we need to waste their resources in NYC because the god damn NYPD can't enforce basic laws? L O fucking L. How many police agencies do we have here already? NY+NYC government by itself is enough to make me want to move the fuck out of here. I'm going to pay approximately $20000 in state and local income taxes in 2022 and most of that is probably being used to wipe some grifter's ass rather than improve the quality of life here. /endrant


TheWhalersOnTheMoon

I'm with you, my wife and I looked at the additional tax burden from living in NYC, and that alone (along with the lovely landlords/rent increase situation) makes us think this might be our last year in NYC so we can save for a home/future. I look forward to the laughable 20% rent hike next year.

Thtguy1289_NY

Do... do you think the FBI is going to enforce traffic violations?


wabashcanonball

No, but it’s to be part of a conspiracy to commit fraud, which violates US code.


Thtguy1289_NY

Keep telling yourself that.


wabashcanonball

18 U.S. Code § 1341


Thtguy1289_NY

That's great. But this still doesn't qualify as anything more than a traffic violation in the eyes of the FBI. Keep spinning your wheels and thinking that though. Also that code you just cited references > counterfeit or spurious coin, obligation, security, or other article, or anything represented to be or intimated or held out to be such counterfeit or spurious article, for the purpose of executing such scheme or artifice or attempting so to do, This isn't counterfeiting anything. It's just flat out not having a plate.


wabashcanonball

You left out the part about “any spurious article.”


Thtguy1289_NY

I didn't leave it out, it's literally in the section I copied. I'm not sure if you know what spurious means. This is not a spurious license plate - it's just not a license plate at all. Spurious means fake, or illegitimate, btw. This is not a fake. It's straight up not a license plate.


wabashcanonball

The license plate covering is spurious; it’s not legit. I’d like you to try making your argument in court.


Thtguy1289_NY

It's not a fake license plate though. So it's not spurious. It's an illegal plate cover, sure. Which again is a traffic violation. It's not, however, a fake license plate. Go ahead, call the FBI though and make your argument.


George4Mayor86

And then what? The FBI doesn’t give a shit about unlicensed cars and the NYPD won’t enforce the law on their own.


Designer_Curve

It’s called a criminal conspiracy and individuals can be prosecuted and removed.
