he actually called the tip line and turned himself in. he didn't go anywhere and didn't hide.
NYPD commissioner says, "We were able to shrink his world quickly. There was nowhere left for him to run"

gave them the license plate of the car that totaled mine
'we don't have any way of verifying if that's true' was the nicest response I got before they started to more directly imply that I was trying to frame a random guy or commit fraud of some kind.
they couldn't update or add information to the police report and told me 'the detectives' would call me about the case - surprise, they did not.

plus you can choose the strain of mushroom which is really significant. I was pretty much not a fan of shrooms until I grew my own, they were less prolific and not as strong but they felt much more energetic

it's weird how literally nobody has provided a coherent solution other than 'moped riders can go die in traffic'
what a sad bunch of entitled pieces of shit like you here

who the fuck doesn't know that delivery drivers in Manhattan don't fucking live in Manhattan

it's weird that you think this response is relevant - I'm not saying it isn't against the rules, I'm saying that riding a moped in a vehicle lane on the bridge is dangerous, critically so.
a solution involves avoiding people getting hurt not... proof they can be punished by law. forcing moped riders to choose between breaking the law or putting themselves in critical danger sets a bad precedent for how riders follow laws and worsens the scenarios where mopeds endanger others.
also how is a U-Haul or the belt parkway relevant? on what part? it's a major thoroughfare and one of the better roads to drive a truck.

'real new yorkers' also sometimes live in the outer boroughs and have to bring their delivery vehicle into Manhattan.
until we're paying delivery drivers enough for them to move to Manhattan, this is a nonstarter

cool fantasy - the bridge speed limits are 35, nobody follows the speed limit and they drive as fast as they can until they hit traffic which is only crawling at certain times in certain directions and often only half the bridge.

that's not applicable at all, what a weird and stupid strawman.
transportation is often the entire fuckin job, not a 'tool'
the fact remains that if NYC only has bridges into Manhattan, and the streets are critically dangerous for mopeds then the mopeds will use the bike lanes.
the solution isn't to force the mopeds into a situation that's clearly immediately lethal because they're annoying. I get that it gives you a justice boner to think of people that annoy you getting killed on their way to work, but the reasonable response would be to work on solutions that take other's sense of self preservation into account

so just condemn the delivery classes to road conditions that their moped cannot handle? doesn't matter as long as enough survive to get your Sweetgreen's delivered?

I don't expect discourse, only downvotes - but how should mopeds get across the bridges? the speed limit is higher than the top speed of most delivery mopeds and drivers invariably exceed that limit.
mopeds absolutely do not belong in the bike lanes, and it's exacerbated by riders that blow through at max speed but shoving the delivery guys onto a bridge packed with heavy vehicles going twice as fast is way worse than 'pretty annoying'

it's less a symptom and more a hallmark that what you have in your mouth isn't acid. if you spit it out as soon as you start to feel a numbness/tingling, you'll probably be ok with most dosages.
the biggest risk is that dosages are easy to get wrong when it's active in micrograms.
