1261161683 effin new york and their effin ways

don’t get me wrong, NYC is EXTREMELY high on my most-favorite-cities list. but THIS is abhorrent. also, the tax is apparently illegal.

"New York city garages are finally starting to comply with the law which took effect on November 11, requiring them to accept bicycles for parking. The details of the law are described HERE.

Unfortunately, many of them are charging too much–this is actually the lowest rate I have seen, among the handful of garages that will accept bikes for parking at all. Even worse, the garages are all charging parking tax, which by state law can only be collected on the parking of motorized vehicles. I guess no one told them they can’t do this! DCA has dropped the ball on this big time."
