'Unacceptable': Mamdani Condemns Super Speeder Cop, But Won't Commit to Action - Streetsblog New York City
""That behavior is unacceptable, and I say that because everyone, including those in law enforcement, must follow traffic laws across our city.""
""What I will say is that I do have an expectation that everyone employed by the city sets an example for what it looks like to act responsibly in consideration with the safety of other viewers.""
Mayor Mamdani criticized NYPD officer James Giovansanti's excessive traffic violations, labeling them as unacceptable. Giovansanti received 547 tickets from speed and red-light cameras, averaging one ticket every other day. Mamdani emphasized the importance of all city employees adhering to traffic laws and setting a responsible example. While his Department of Transportation supports the 'Stop Super Speeders Act,' Mamdani has not publicly commented on it. He mentioned ongoing internal discussions regarding the situation and has previously deferred to conversations with NYPD Commissioner Tisch on related issues.
