Sanitation permit = ATM run?

Samuel Dickstein Plaza and Grand St., New york, NY

Just ran in to the bank...and thanks to the sanitation permit, the traffic agent won't give me a ticket (the traffic agent looked at the permit and walked on). New Grand St. bike lane.

Liberated!

West 78th Street and West End Avenue, New york, NY

I have no idea if my calls and emails to the city and the construction contractors working here helped, but the bike lane at West 78th & West End Avenue has now been free and clear of construction materials for 3 days and so I officially declare it liberated (the biker decal was damaged by the steel plates stored on it, but c'est le guerre).

To demonstrate that I am not so parochial as to care only about dangers posed by illegally parked vehicles to bicycles, I noted that the placard on the dash of the Mercedes in the picture was issued to an "honorary police surgeon" and the car is parked right in front of a hydrant at 8:30 am: http://www.flickr.com/photos/43954081@N00/321551270/

Didn't Hippocrates tell us to "do no harm"?
