"They are SO RUDE!", congressional staffer whines, while clutching their pearls.

Yes, sweetheart, you dialed New York City. Come visit sometime.

I am aware. They send cops to control the intersection / report the condition to DOT, and then (usually) wait for DOT to come fix it.

you can probably buy a sapling for $100, plant it yourself & watch it grow for 5 years before the Street Tree planting folks will be able to get around to it

Get a tulip poplar. They grow fast.

100% true

although I HAVE managed to get an NYPD response (twice!) via 311 for traffic lights that are out at an intersection (I call 311, tell them there's a traffic light out at an intersection & it's going to cause an accident; they transfer me to 911 & they will actually send cops)
