Hey All!

I figured this may be the best place to ask since I have an ongoing problem at my work site. Currently a non-handicap employee is parking in the handicap spot. Management turned a blind eye to it for a while since we have no handicapped employees. Recently a person was injured and requires a wheelchair to access the building and this idiot continues to park there preventing the other from using it.

My question is, can a LEO issue a parking ticket on private property? Or is it up to management to call a towing company. The spot it marked very clearly.
State: NY
City: Queens

Thanks All!

Edit: Employee was addressed twice and still continues to do it,

I believe they can for a handicapped parking spot but I would bet that the spot must meet certain requirements to qualify. If the .gov can mandate that you have a HC spot, there must be a way to enforce it.

Thanks for the reply!

Turned out to be a self correcting problem as of now. Handicapped employe got fed up and called local PD and they ticketed and towed. Other employee is unaware their car is gone until they leave .

Guess that answers the question

Ah a perfect outcome.  What's it cost to jailbreak your car in NYC these days?

BTW assholes taking up handicapped parking annoy me. About the only time I could waver on that is offbeat hours and a virtually empty lot ie at 2 am at closed business


Also the company HR folks should have nipped this in the bud.  Call turd in for official write up and ban his car from the property for a month.

Assholes that park in handicap spots and then proceed to walk around an entire mall or wal mart piss me off.

 

Not sure if it's changed since I retired from NYPD but cops were told never to write tickets on private property. Call the local precinct or 311 and ask for the number to the Dept. of Traffic (meter maids). They might write him a ticket and/or tow him.

Turned out to be self correcting. The handicapped employee called the local pd and had it towed / ticketed.

Think the hookup was $175 and day impound is $90

Plus any outstanding parking tickets have to be paid before they'll release it.

Depends state to state. I michigan I can only issue for Handicap violation and parking in a fire lane.

J-

OUCH!

Didn't know that part. That has to suck! The asshole that parked there has not showed up at work today

One of the few times it's funny to call the man into somebodies life....
