Cars Honking incessantly, blocking grids Open

423 Broome Street Manhattan, New York, NY - Soho

For the whole two miles east from the Holland Tunnel all the way past Chrystie Street, traffic is three cars wide and the drivers block each grid throughout weekends, and THEY HONK CONTINUOUSLY.
Rarely traffic cops are assigned to direct the flow, though cops are sometimes observing cell phone use of drivers, they usually stay in the shade in a group of 4, or inside their cars parked on the sidestreet. The honking noise is horrible. There are DOT signs posted that there is a '$350 FINE FOR HONKING' , at Broadway and Broome, and two 'NO HONKING SIGNS" up Lafayette and Prince near the Fire Department, and why is a 'NO HONKING $350 FINE' sign posted on Thompson Street (West of West Broadway) a one-lane North-South street?! WHY don't they enforce the no honking and get those good fines?

  25 march 2012, still miserably aggravating noise form honking. Two days ago, though, there were three traffic police handing out tickets as fast as they could write them to drivers blocking the grid at BROADWAY and at MERCER on Broome. NOT at Lafayette, Cleveland Place or any cross street east.
  
  ALSO, they block the CROSSWALKS all the time, making it impossible to cross the street for pedestrians. Sure, one could go into the traffic lane, but the drivers also want to move, and jeopardize my safety just trying to cross the street on the way home with groceries.

  Sunday morning, 8:30 am, there the cars are, honking and blaring, and the noise intrudes to my 7th story place, where 50 feet down the loft, I hear them, loud. What are they gaining? I know what I lose: peace on an early morning. No this had not been fixed, not even addressed. The drivers are completely impatient, and it is not right they are able to get away with this venting at local residents' cost. photo is April 6th.

  Sept 2012 they still block the grid and honk. no perceptible alteration in the noise level. the rare cop assigned occasionally takes the job seriously and does something; mostly they stand in the shade and do nothing, talk amongst themselves. what to do?

  October 2012, all Friday afternoon there those drivers were: honking. How can anyone imagine this is 'colcluded' - maybe if thy don't pay attention to the problem?

Police harassment of bicyclists Open

7th Ave & 115th St New York, NY - Harlem

My wife and I were riding north on 7th Avenue, in the left lane in preparation for a left turn on 116th St. A police car came up behind us and announced through the loudspeaker, "Get in the bike lane. Ride in the bike lane, not the traffic lanes." I signaled a left turn and the officer seemed to get it. He may have also noticed the numerous vehicles (including a police car) parked in the bike lane. Clearly the NYPD still does not understand NYC traffic laws.

  This sounds startling/nerve-wracking at the very least. Hopefully these officers receive training in traffic law as it applies to cyclists.
