Sounding your horn at any time in NYC makes you eligible for a $350 fine. I propose strict enforcement of this law; this will enable the city to restore the child care vouchers that have been cut from the budget.
A fine is supposed to match the crime, and only serve as a deterrent to the crime. Making fines to cover other expenses is wrong. Very wrong. Besides, you’ll now be motivated to fine, even when there is no legitimate reason to, (which happens all the time in NYC).
