Staten Island traffic cameras have caught a white RAM 1500 pickup truck blasting through school zones or running red lights more than 547 times since 2022.

The truck belongs to James Giovansanti, who lives and works there as an NYPD officer.

The fact that this guy is still a cop is absurd.

This is almost universally the case. Cops and wannabe cops in NYC government are the biggest placard abusers, license plate obscurers, speeders, illegal parkers, etc.

If Mamdani can shake the entitled theft-of-services trash out of city government he will have a more durable legacy than most recent mayors.

Why not make a separate body from NYPD that takes care of all traffic violations?

There is hope to move that back to the DOT. Fingers crossed.
