Linen & Uniforms hates their company
233 bleecker st, New york, NY
In the new Bleecker Street bike lane, the laundry guys have a new place to park illegally and get their bosses higher fines. Rather than choosing available parking across the street in the No Parking zone, they opt for the No Standing Anytime zone—a much bigger fine, nearly double. Why do these guys hate their company so much? (We already know how much they hate bicyclists.) Because parking across the street would require they walk an extra 15 feet—with a handtruck that's about 10 seconds or less. Also they've nicely chewed through their rear license plate—a violation, because numbers are missing—so it would be tough to call 888-411-3231 and report their plate 63556 JD unless you went around to the front of the truck. You could also call their company at (718) 622-4710 to report this lousy parking; supervisors are always interested to know how their companies can reduce parking violation expenses.

If you go to the Department of Finance website, their violations have a similar pattern—no muni-meter receipt (they didn't pay the quarter), fire hydrant, traffic lane, expired meter. Maybe these guys also need a roll of quarters each day to save their company $$$?
Always in bike lane outside Old Homestead
56 ninth, New york, NY
Morning deliveries on Ninth Avenue just above 14th Street. Every day it's the same thing—delivery trucks that regularly violate No Standing Anytime by parking in the green zone here directly in front of their clients' restaurants. Whether it's Sysco, the tomato van, or the uniform guys, this redesigned traffic area becomes a parking lot. The other side of the street and nearby side street and 30 feet up the street offer legal parking, but when you're a delivery guy you believe in your god-given right to park in No Standing Anytime zones for as long as you want. Problem here is the bottleneck as traffic approaches 14th Street, making this new bike lane extremely dangerous for bikers. $345 of tickets accrued since 09/04/07.
