APRIL 4, 2007 -- Once again, LPR,
last week, got caught in a traffic jam on Madison Avenue, created
by two double-parked trucks that reduced the thoroughfare's three
lanes to one -- with no PVB agent in sight. (Perhaps they were busy
giving out $65 tickets for cars parked safely out of traffic lanes,
but a few minutes overtime at meters.)
LPR wonders about
the tracking uses of the bar codes on registration and inspection
stickers.

Mayor Bloomberg last week vetoed a City Council proposal to limit pedicabs, asking that free enterprise determine their number. (LPR would encourage the mayor to expand his support of freedom to undo other burdensome regulations.)
Considering the renewed gas price spike (the prices shown in the accompanying photo have since been raised), the pedicabs might one day have Manhattan streets to share only with taxis and limos and bicycles and horse-drawn carriages.
