New York doesn't enforce double parking, jaywalking, and other "good neighbor" and safety laws. Why is this one special?

New York doesn't enforce double parking, jaywalking, and other "good neighbor" and safety laws. Why is this one special?
- JumpCrisscross 8y ago> New York doesn't enforce double parking, jaywalking, and other "good neighbor" and safety laws I am not disturbed by double parkers or jaywalkers. I was disturbed by unit 4F and 7B's weekly round of "drunk Europeans screaming in the hallway at 3AM".
- humanrebar 8y agoI've seen people almost die due to double parking clogging up the street. I'm sure accidents do happen from that.
- bradleyjg 8y agoInteresting that the two “good neighbor” laws you picked mainly impact drivers. Perhaps the answer to your question is that almost all New Yorkers (city) are living in multiple dwelling buildings but only a smallish minority are regular drivers.
- humanrebar 8y agoThey also impact pedestrians. I've seen pedestrians almost hit due to double parking in NYC. Sometimes they are also jaywalking, but sometimes there's a crosswalk or intersection and the double parking is hurting visibility.
- bradleyjg 8y agoThat’s a good point. I wonder if that’s been considered as part of vision zero.
