More than 600 buses across 14 of the MTA's routes have cameras ready to catch and fine drivers who block bus stops or double park in bus lanes.
Drivers caught blocking bus stops in New York City will automatically get a fine starting Monday as part of a new ticketing initiative to clear city bus routes.
If you're caught blocking a bus lane, a bus stop, or even double parking, expect to get a ticket in the mail."If you're double parked on our routes, blocking our buses or if you're parked in our bus lanes, you are now going to receive a violation," warned Frank Annicaro, New York City Transit senior vice president of buses.
