54th Street and Madison Avenue intersection, New York, NY sham BUSTED!

May 8, 2009

This is wild. NYPD traffic cops set up the perfect trap on the 54th street intersection and are doling out $115 fines no questions asked.
The cars crossing Madison are being pulled over for blocking the box which is a total sham.
What happens is there is NO LEFT turn allowed on 54th before 6pm, so the cars that get stuck in the back of the line crossing Madison Avenue cannot turn left, and have to wait for the pedestrians to cross. Those cars that cross Madison Avenue that get stuck in the back of the line are not intentionally blocking the box, and cannot see as theyre crossing Madison Avenue that the cars up ahead are jammed up.
At that moment, the traffic cops, who are themselves in part causing the jam, walk up to the drivers caught in the back and scan their registration and print out a ticket for blocking the box.
The drivers who get upset at this blatantly false traffic ticket and subsequently attempt to point out the facts are brushed off, and told absolutely nothing.
Supposedly, the traffic cops are following orders in this particular operation to prevent spillback (where cars end up blocking the intersection). But instead of directing the traffic, and instead of preventing spillback, they cause more spillback.

At a rate of about 1 ticket a minute, this translates to well over $50,000 a day in these fraudulent traffic fines.

Every ticket ought to be voided from this incident.

@MrCadillacLover 1) I don't work for the city, nor do I live in New York, 2) You miss the point of the ticket entirely.

@XxGRAWM1A1xX Well first off I am normal, second I get about 3 tickets a year because I know their tricks and I own a trucking company. They are fucking bots. You probably work for the city making a whopping $35k per year. They are there to generate revenue, not to help the problem.

[XxGRAWM1A1xX]

@MrCadillacLover Does it matter what they feel inside or why they do the job? Why do you pick on them? Just because they write tickets? That's sad. If you were a normal human being, you'd be following the law and wouldn't be needing a ticket like those idiots in the video. It's not like they asked for one. You're obvously the one who was bullied so you pick on civil servants? Just deplorable...

[MrCadillacLover]

Let me explain the traffic agent. Traffic agents consist of mostly blacks, hispanics, indians and some jews. From elementary school to high school they were picked on and bullied. They lack education so they can't own their own business. They have no balls, so they're not going to to be a real cop, fireman or paramedic. So they say what can I do that requires the least amount of work effort and will give me a false sense of authority? I'LL BE A TRAFFIC AGENT!!!!

@datkoolbrutha well i don't know about in america, but in canada if traffic is backed up all the way to the crosswalk lines on the other side of intersection you do not pass the stop line on the side you are on, even if it is a green light, maybe they should have simular laws down there or if they do have the same laws down there maybe people should just start following them

[CaptainCocaine]

Wait... do mean to say they are puling into the intersection during heavy traffic before the intersection is clear? Can I get those cops to come down here to Maryland for a few weeks?

[tsunchoo]

just an observation - i can't say that this is a deliberate scam or not but i think the law is don't cross the intersection unless the exit is free.. car drivers in NY never obey this law.

[datkoolbrutha]

Man, you should go to the corner of 49th street & Madison.That block is the wost of the worst. They give tickets to bus drivers too.I'm one of them,lol! But my company took care of it. Maybe if these asshole traffic agents would help get the traffic moving more freely, nobody would be getting stuck at intersections in the first place. All of this to generate money. Maybe some of that money can be used to help keep free student passes!
