Mayor Eric Adams and Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch crushed over 200 illegal mopeds in Staten Island, highlighting ongoing efforts to eliminate unlawful two-wheel vehicles from New York streets. Adams criticized the mopeds for being linked to violent crimes, stating they terrify residents, especially seniors. Since the beginning of Adams' administration, approximately 62,000 illegal vehicles have been removed, with significant reductions in mopeds-related crimes reported. Despite this progress, Tisch argues more improvement is necessary, reinforcing the city's commitment to addressing illegal mopeds and enhancing public safety.
Since the start of the Adams administration, City Hall says police have removed some 62,000 illegal vehicles from the street, which includes altered or fake license plates.
The rise of the moped era that came after COVID-19 has terrorized many of our pedestrians, particularly our seniors, who live in fear of being run down.
