“I’m not allowed to touch the plate” said the parking enforcement woman when I asked why she ticketed the next car over for illegal parking but not the bike with the obscured plate.

I even offered to take the tape off myself so she could ticket this guy and she laughed it off. The system is broken.

Saw a car with the license plate's corners folded in like the tip of a paper airplane. Literally 2 screws and a triangle.

Just roll it in the middle of the street and call 311 for blocking traffic

Call 311 - have cops respond they can ticket and have the vehicles towed.

A lot of people are getting rid of cars and going scooter. No plates, no registration, no insurance, cheap on gas, no tickets. Wait until congestion hoaxing kicks in, scooters will be zipping through all the suckers in the cars, toll free of course.

I know a girl who keeps a traffic cone in her trunk. What does she use it for, right? Like, it's super weird. Why have a traffic cone in your trunk? Oh, it's because when she wants to hold a really dope parking spot, she places the traffic cone there so other people don't park there. Hmm, yeah, I told her, you're not being smart. You're being a dick.

that just means when you see a good spot with a cone and no sign posting, that spot is up for grabs with a free cone.

I'll keep it 100 with you, that girl is me. I keep a traffic cone in my trunk so I could hold really dope parking spots when I leave. I do think it is smart and resourceful. They say that Jeff Bezos was smart and resourceful during his come-up, and shit, he still is today. If Baldy McBezos can do it and make billions, why can't I do it, man!

If piggies are allowed to do it, delivery guys definitely should be allowed to since they actually provide a valuable service unlike the fat fucks in blue.

The license plate is covered. The bike is avoiding the tolls/tickets.

Also touching someone’s property or even the plates can:

  1. Get you fucked up
  2. arrested

They do something like hit and run, even with a dash cam, security cam, or your cell phone picture they can drive off and screw you over - you gotta pay for everything out of pocket.

They are the worst drivers because unless their vehicle is 100 percent disabled they just run after the accident.

My friend was hit by a car with a vandalized plate so the photos that she managed to take was not usable for the police report or her insurance. People who vandalize plates threaten the safety of everyone.
