We don't know whether someone was in a rush to buy some last minute flowers or was just another of nearly 40% of New York City drivers who exceed the speed limit, but someone on Avenue A today did a bang-up job parking their car just outside the Exit 9 Gift Shop between East 4th and 5th Streets in the East Village.

hmm, the muni meters are solar powered or
at least charged.
and, those bollards didn't do their job.
aww they put the meter up like a couple weeks ago.
those meters are retarded, it wouldve been a great idea, but you can only pay for up to ONE HOUR. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
In South Beach, you can do 6 hours or something.
Jesus, why do they make everything so unlivable? Couldn't they make the limit atleast a few hours, so you atleast have time to do something?
It depends on what the rule is for that particular block, just like with the conventional meters. Sometimes you get 2, 4, 6, whatever they've decided.
In South Beach, you can buy a condo for 75 cents and park your car 24/7!
But officer I thought it was a pedestrian.
Ouch. But, yes.
I thought bollards were concrete filled.
Someone really hates Muni Meters!
Looks like a fairly common parking violation but I don't see a ticket on the windshield so maybe that's not true.
I'm guessing he just said "I didn't see it" and walked off with no ticket/violation.
I'm pretty sure that the bollards they put up next to the Muni-Meters are not really the "homeland security" kind that are designed to stop a fast moving car or truck. From their construction it looks more like their intent is to stop a slow-moving parallel-parking car from backing into the meter while parking and thus save the meter from damage. Especially considering they are hollow and merely bolted to the sidewalk.
The driver must have been freaked out by one of the neighborhood rats.
No, 40 percent of the drivers in the 13 locations hand-selected by Transportation Alternatives. Big difference.
The only other available option was parking on the cop-block.
