After being confronted about the 133 traffic tickets he amassed, Brad Lander insisted he had paid all fines on time, claiming, "I pay every one on time, and I plan on continuing to do so." However, records indicated he incurred $45 in late fees over the years for various violations, including speeding and parking infractions, contradicting his assertions.
The Post's findings highlight the discrepancies in Lander's statements regarding his traffic tickets. Even after accumulating numerous violations, Lander maintained a narrative of prompt payments, which was directly challenged by the city's Department of Finance records, revealing late fees that paint a different picture.
Councilman Bob Holden criticized Lander harshly, stating, "Scofflaw Speedster Wannabe Mayor Brad Lander, the do-nothing, performative comptroller, has been caught in yet another lie. What a surprise!" This sentiment reflects broader concerns about Lander's credibility as a mayoral candidate.
Following earlier exposés, Brad Lander committed to transparency about his traffic violations. He had stated he would disclose how many parking or moving violations he received monthly. However, the ongoing revelations about late fees suggest a continued gap between his promises and actual accountability.
