Assemblyman Dov Hikind (D-Brooklyn) announced that consequences continue to escalate for those who park commercial vehicles illegally along 21st Ave. in Boro Park. Last night, the NYPD’s 66th Precinct continued both towing and booting the tires of illegally parked commercial vehicles, including the many tractor trailers that community members have complained of.
“There’s been a continuing effort to protect the community by ticketing, towing and booting these illegally parked vehicles,” said Hikind. “My sincere thanks to Captain Kenneth Quick of the 66th Precinct and his many officers who are taking this situation very seriously and have provided additional patrols in the area at night. Our community is very appreciative. I will remain in contact with the residents and the police to make certain that this matter is fully resolved.”
Hikind also thanked Misaskim for lending the NYPD light towers to aid in this operation and create a safer environment for residents.

How about busses parking on residential streets ?
Thanks Dov for being on top of this,
for those that don’t know, people in the 21st ave neighborhood are afraid to walk on the 21st ave stretch between 53 and 57 due to all the trailers blocking the sidewalk from being viewed by passing cars.
This is an extreme dangerous situation, and the credit goes for all those involved in curbing this.
We just have to fight this till the end, and not give up.
The 66 has long ignored a truck without plates that has parked daily for months on 14th Avenue where it meets Church Avenue and a pickup with a plow and no plates that has parked for years next to the Beverley Shell station at Beverley and Coney Island Ave. They are not all serious about enforcement.
