"As part of Streetsblog's annual review of placard parking at precinct houses, we discovered that at Staten Island's 120th Precinct, 82 percent of police officers' personal vehicles had been ticketed by cameras for reckless driving multiple times."
"One cop had 57 camera tickets, another had 40, another had 25 and another had 24, you get the idea."
"Mamdani showed off his charm: But then he promised, 'We will definitely follow up on that thank you for flagging.'"
"The mayor is again on notice that the Mamdani-O-Meter doesn't only move in one direction ... and we'll be watching to see what he does."

This raises questions about the city's policy of providing free parking to officers who drive recklessly, especially in school zones. Mayor Mamdani acknowledged the issue and promised to follow up. The situation highlights the need for accountability among police officers regarding their driving behavior.
