Full NYPD uniformed officers.
Location at 90th and York. There is a stop sign on 90th right at York. York ends right at 90th, so it's a 90 degree right turn only.
The cushman was sitting in the middle of York and the traffic was backed up along 90th. As the line moved forward to the cushman, the POS watched to see who came to a complete stop at the stop sign. Of course, nobody did...........because the line gradually moved forward to the cushman.
They ticketed everybody.

Let's say that I beg to differ.............
