Why your neighborhood is full of Queens Crap
"The difference between dishonest and honest graft: for dishonest graft one worked solely for one's own interests, while for honest graft one pursued the interests of one's party, one's state, and one's personal interests all together." - George Washington Plunkitt

how about protecting our expensive cars, by removing
or decreasing the speed bumps in the roads. the axles and motor mounts and shocks are being destroyed.
Where are these "scout Vehicles" that were talked up 2 years ago?
How about enforcing NO TRUCK ROUTES streets that trucks routinely drive on. If the city is looking for fines this is like shooting fish in a barrel. Where are those winney copy in the Bronx telling us they are forced to write tickets when there is none? Yeah, right look around there are plenty of opportunities to do you job already. The 110 precinct has not learned that yet.
