One of the things all New Yorkers must deal with on an all too regular basis are the alternate side of the street parking rules. As anybody who has owned a car in this city will array to, we often spend more time circling the block in search of parking spots than we ever do actually driving somewhere. As frustrating as this is, we also realize the necessity of it as people feel like they can use city streets as a gigantic dumpster. But one thing has always bothered us, why the hell can't you park on a street after the sweeper has come by?
Most of the regulations require a two hour window when cars are not allowed to park so the sweepers can come by but once they have made their pass there is no reason why a car shouldn't be allowed to park
In out neighborhood the regulation usually runs from 9:30 to 11AM but the sweeper is almost always done before 10. And them it becomes a total waiting game as cars wait to fill the very limited parking availability in the hood
This is a waste of time and resources and it's gotta end
