NEW YORK — New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio’s official vehicles were spotted breaking several traffic laws on Thursday, just two days after he laid out a sweeping traffic safety plan that included harsh restrictions on reckless drivers.

De Blasio was in the front passenger seat of the lead SUV of a two-vehicle caravan that was captured on video speeding, running through a pair of stop signs and not signaling when changing lanes. The footage, which aired on WCBS-TV, was taken as de Blasio returned to City Hall after a news conference in Queens.

The mayor’s press office deferred to the police department for particulars of the incident because a member of the NYPD was behind the wheel of de Blasio’s SUV. But de Blasio’s press secretary said that “public safety is everyone’s responsibility.”

“With that in mind, Mayor de Blasio is firmly committed to the traffic safety policies outlined this week,” Walzak said in a statement that did not include an apology or admission of wrongdoing.

Reporting them will get a response but probably one you would not see or get feedback on. I was in charge of Government police/business vehicles and when I got a complaint the driver would be standing tall in front of me while I read him/her the riot act. And if they were caught on intersection cameras I drove them to the court house and watched them pay the fine. Please report incidents that you believe are misconduct. Otherwise the actions will continue to happen.

Does not do any good!! Once driving from Pickwick to MEM to work a Black Escalade with FOP tags and marked Sheriff car from Huntsville area passed me on 72 going 90.  I followed them and taped it and called the Sheriff and his office guy got mad at me for reporting it.   I was a reserve deputy and federal leo so nothing against LEOs but actions like that make us all look bad.

such general statements only go to show your hatred for liberals and your ignorance as a human being. thanks.

No, Crash, its not a general statement, but one borne of knowledge.  De Blasio is an original red diaper baby -- raised by Reds.  He supported Castro -- ruler of the most racist regime in the western hemisphere and  communist, to boot.  He also supported Chavez in Venezuela -- which under Chavez and his chosen successor is becoming the  Zimbabwe of the Americas -- imagine vast oil resources, but a shortage of electricity, milk and toilet paper. 

 

De Blasio insisted upon a jaywalking crackdown, which ended in five of the NYPD's finest beating the crap out of an 84 year old oriental. Program ended shortly after that debacle. 

Crash, like Winston, sends history down a memory hole.  Obamacare is an excellent example of that "compromise."  The bill was written in committee (closed to Republicans), never sent to subcommittee. When presented in the Senate, Reid forbade Republicans from submitting amendments.  The 60 member rule was ignored and it passed on a 51 member vote.  Passed to the House, Pelosi did the same equivalent. 

 

When Obama made the statement that all debt ceiling bills that passed were clean, he told another tale worth of "you can keep your doctor!"

I just feed your own BS back to you.  If you don't like the taste of it, then stop crapping.
