I'm confused here, what does a reflective vest have to do with anything?

  In New York, the traffic cops ignore illegally parked cars that somehow indicate they're part of the brotherhood. A reflective vest will do, so will a hand written note saying you're a cop, court officer, employee at DA's office, surgeon, accountant in NYPD, anything really that indicates you're "one of them". A thin blue line sticker will also work. It's wonderful.

    This sounds awful lot like a conspiracy theory. I assume a reflective vest is easy enough to obtain

      And yet: https://marginalrevolution.com/marginalrevolution/2018/01/get-jail-free-cards.html https://marginalrevolution.com/marginalrevolution/2018/01/ge... "In the movies I’ve seen people who try to get out of a traffic ticket by telling the police officer they made a donation to the policeman’s ball, but those were comedies. I had no idea that not only does this exist there are official cards. In fact, the police in New York are livid that the number of cards is being limited."
