I agree. I HATE when I see cars drive by school buses that are stopped and picking up/discharging kids.
That said, there needs to be a better system. An idea may be to have a few second 'grace period' so those that are parallel and can't see, don't get ticketed. This could be similar to why there are yellow flashing lights first and only then do they turn flashing red. Similarly, traffic lights turn yellow and then red.
fair enough
anyone try fighting it with dashcam footage?

Like I told my wife, the only way to fight it is by going to court. I'm not a gevir in any sense of the word but it's not worth my time (an money, as at a minimum I will have to take off from work.). We just paid it and moved on. And daven that the class action suit is successful.
Truth is, I should speak to a few local politicians about it. I'll work on it from that angle.

Do it yourself. Most plumbers aren’t going to want to come to your house for less than that.

I did it! Well sort of... https://forums.dansdeals.com/index.php?topic=84292.msg2802767#new
If it's not free shipping it's not worth it.

Any recommendations for a car wash place that does shampoo?
A plus if the car comes out cleaner than it was before...

Just an fyi, this guy price gauges before pesach. personally that's a non starter for me, I would never use them. There is a car wash on corner of Rockaway and Sunrise Highway, that does shampoo as well.

Comments seem to tell a different story than the article. I wonder what happened
Ditto. That's why I posted in case someone was there and cares to share

I see Cold Stone Creamery is opening next to Applebee's. I used to love that place but hadn't had it in years. Anybody know if it's going to be kosher?
