Ahh yes. 9th Ave definitely is on the list of highways to and from the Airport where 53’ trailers are allowed.
Another 53’ trailer that isn’t allowed in NYC anywhere

Incredibly normal morning at the corner of Ocean Parkway and Church Avenue, where a massive 53 foot truck seemingly rear ended an express bus and snarled traffic for hours. People are driving onto the sidewalk and mixed use path to complete the turn onto Ocean Parkway
Illegal 53' trailers are common to spot on every avenue, including 9th Ave. Why can't NYPD ever spot them?

Good, but there are still detached trailers illegally parked in your “after” photo.

Just a peaceful afternoon #UWS dodging this double exhaust pipe modified muffler @illegal53NYC. @galeabrewer, any sway with getting @NYPDTransport @NYPDHighway to do their jobs?
@XTRALease rents to people who don't care about following the law. They should inform their clients that 53' trailers are illegal on NYC streets. @illegal53NYC
Always @illegal53NYC too
Somehow missing from the violations issued to this tractor trailer stuck in the tunnel: over-length violation. nydailynews.com/2023/09/28/tru…
Hi @JoAnneSimonBK52 can you provide an update on legislation authorizing/requiring automated enforcement of over-length vehicles?

And yet this problem exists in part because @NYPDTransport and all of NYPD combined can only manage on average one ticket a day for @illegal53NYC Their own data shows only 122 over-length summonses issued in the first 6 months of 2023.

We will be watching open data to see how this plays out. The city estimated"18,000" overweight vehicles *a day* used this segment before pandemic. At $650 a pop that's $4.2 billion in fines a year (assuming drivers didn't change behavior) gothamist.com/news/nyc-launc…
@illegal53NYC sure looks like two 53's on 47 btwn 8th and Broadway...come on nyc
This 53’ tractor trailer tried to make a tight nyc turn and now is stranded ☹️😒 Drivers, busses, pedestrians all in Mayhem on one of PLG’s busiest intersections. Just another reason why these vehicles are *illegal* in NYC
Sorry for the lack of @illegal53NYC content as of late; tweetdeck changes have made that harder to manage.

We shouldn't have to "share" the road with vehicles that are not supposed to be there @NYPDTransport - enforce rules on truck routes and enforce length restrictions. Period. x.com/nypdtransport/…

Yup. It's an illegal 53' trailer.

A 10% reduction in trailer length (for those that don't already comply with the law) will magically 3x grocery bills?? We have vehicle length restrictions because it's a safety issue in an urban setting like NYC. It's not optional. x.com/bigdaddystep53…
🤣🤣🤣 NYC would die of hunger if our food was delivered legally using 48' trailers instead of 53' trailers. Got it.
This truck is illegal on every square inch of Brooklyn @illegal53NYC

.@NYC_DOT @NYPD76Pct Saw 4 53' trailers on Columbia St. this morning. DOT: Outreach to trucking community? NYPD please enforce. They get stuck trying to turn all the time & destroy other vehicles. @CMShahanaHanif @Sen_Gounardes @JoAnneSimonBK52 @53 @illegal53NYC @StreetsblogNYC
@BKGreenway The state of the flushing bit between Grand and Ryserson is a mess since @illegal53NYC 's keep driving on it.
@XTRALease rents to people who don't care about following the law. They should inform their clients that 53' trailers are illegal on NYC streets. @illegal53NYC
@illegal53NYC @NYPDTransport I probably could have written 122 a week easily.
@illegal53NYC @NYPDTransport In my neighborhood they are currently 7 tractor trailers over length . They park them overnight in city streets as well as other commercial vehicles. Reporting to 311 is useless.
When they literally hang a sign announcing the crime. @illegal53NYC
Another @illegal53NYC driver failed to read numerous signs and is now stuck on the Brooklyn Bridge. Motorists will enjoy traffic while he attempts to drive in reverse. The Bike lane is running running smoothly FYI.
@illegal53NYC couldn't tell for sure with this one, but could be illegal esp with that sleeper cab. Got stuck trying to turn down that side street and blocked traffic for a while
@BrandonWC @illegal53NYC @NYCMayor @NYCCouncil @nycdot @CMCrystalHudson @TransAlt @NYC_SafeStreets @TransAltBK @StreetsPAC @StreetsblogNYC Unless you saw a 53’ marking on the side, I’m pretty sure Bartlett (milk) uses 48’ trailers exclusively, though still violating the 55’ max. combined length.
@illegal53NYC I tried to tag you but ran out of space.
@illegal53NYC You might also think that wishing a horrible death on the residents of a particular city would disqualify someone from operating dangerous equipment in that city, but here we are in America...
When will I be able to safely bike across the intersection by my home - Caton and CIA - without almost getting mowed down by a turning @illegal53NYC????
@NYPDHighway @NYPDTransport @NYPDnews @NYPDCommAffairs @NYPDChiefOfDept @NYPDPC @NYPDFIRSTDEP @SBANYPD_Archive @NYCPBA Now chase some @illegal53NYC and keep them off our city streets.
@patchcorcoran @clarkstbikelane True. But the ban is not enforced at all. @illegal53NYC does an excellent job in documenting the thorough lack of enforcement.
@WGoose900L @illegal53NYC That would still violate the 55' total length limit
. @AceHardware still driving @illegal53NYC in NYC and intentionally destroying @NYC_DOT infrastructure
After last week’s post and the backchannel communication I had with @AceHardware, I thought they might stay off the bike lane, so I stayed back to see. But nope, they started to drive over the posts and onto the lane so I had to endanger myself again to keep them off. Come on Ace
@OxygenEnjoyer27 @ByGerrySullivan @J11226 @causalpaul @AceHardware I have several videos of this @AceHardware driver blatantly blocking the bike lane with his oversized @illegal53NYC truck.
