Guess What Time It Is?
- Chicago's winter overnight parking ban goes into effect Sunday morning, December 1.
Last year just over 300 vehicles were towed the first day of enforcement.
The parking ban remains in effect until April 1.
The restriction is in effect between 3 and 7 a.m. on main streets, even if there is no snow.
Violation fees include a $150-dollar towing fee and a $60 ticket.
Rahm's going to have every tow truck he can lay his hands on cruising the streets on Saturday night. Make sure you aren't parked at dinner or a tavern and come out to find no car.

A clever city regulation you will not find in less civilized locations, like Texas for instance.
Alderman Fioretti sent an email to his constituents stating he voted against the Mayor's budget.
He cited two reasons:
1. Cutting healthcare subsidies to City retirees.
2. Inadequate police hiring.
How did your Alderman vote?
Rahm used to love cruising the streets on Saturday nights.
From one who knows.
Now, Kees me you fool!!!!
They use state of the art tow trucks too.... the kind that'll shear off your oil pan in a matter of blocks.

Fioretti for mayor, 2015
Please be aware of new school speed cameras, even around Catholic schools also.
I really doubt fioreti is losing any sleep over this. He's playing the game too. Vote no look like a reformer, get a little respect . And when time has passed get your favor from rahm. Like what's her face aldercreature who wanted us to get our retro. How that work out?

Waguespack, Arena, Fioretti, Munoz, Sposato all voted NO on the budget.
The other 45 all voted YES. Especially useless was Ald. Pawar the "reformer" who railed against Daley when he ran for alderman and has voted in lockstep with Emanuel, ever since. Pawar's middle name is "suckhole." Pawar is amazing for how quickly he joined the trained seals of the City Council.

I can assure you Fioretti is on an island with these logical thoughts.
The rest of the council are nothing more than lap dogs and rubber stamps for Rahm.
The City can always start towing cars a little before and after the parking ban starts. After all, they're ticketing parked cars for 'speeding'; might as well find other illicit revenue streams as well.
I always hated this part of the years for that reason.
So I used to look up license plates and ring door bells around 0200 (that was always fun) and tell people to move their car or it would be towed. They would say thank-you. That felt good.
Like I said this was fun, sort of a Midnigh-Wack-A-Mole, Keep Away From the Daley Crime Family.
Sometimes I'd have to drive a a few blocks away. A couple times a woman answers the door. "That car is where?!? Why that no good son-of-a-bitch is with that floozy I'm wring his scrawny neck when I gets hold o' him. O' and thank-you officer"
One thing I always remembered is the face of a young mother when I told her car had been towed right from under her apartment window. She cried when I told her what it would cost to get it back and said she her kids Christmas toys were in the trunk. She would have to take them back so she could get the car so she could go to work.
If you ever happened to go downtown never park On Kinzie\Hubbard\Illionis from State to Wells after 2300. All cars are towed and the signs are posted about 10 feet up. Funny how it was ok to park there when it was all gumps and glory hole adult book stores.

I did numbnuts. That's why I said it. This blog isn't limited to you fools who continue to live in the corrupt city of Chicago and keep bitching about it!!!
I can't deal with this, I am FAR too busy trying to determine if the handicapped permit matches the time of day, sunset, direction of the wind (so I can fart into it) and if they need to pay the meter.
Why they hell do I live/work/spend money in the city again? I'm moving to Detroit.

O.T to the hair gell asswipe from 025 who likes to write tix's to family members. you know who you are . A family member who was pulled over by you because you claim that they were on the cell phone. You were in front , and I guess you saw what you thought was a cell phone in your rear view mirror , pulled over and let the vehicle pass you only so you could pull over the family member begin lecturing about cell phone use. Although courteous to you so you wouldn't be any more pissed off at the world , you commented how you would even write your own children if they did that, after they apologized and stated that they were my family member, & that they had just retired from the city.
You are a P.O.S. who continues to 1st- bring in activity because you must be miserable and 2nd for not knowing how to give courtesy to family members of POLICE OFFICERS on this job here in the same department, But I bet you're the 1st one to jump and try to get a break when your ass does something as minor as bringing attention to any police that would pull you over. You're lucky I wasn't informed about this until today, it happened a few weeks ago, i'm a veteran (19 years) and had I known about this then , I would've marched into the 25th district and confronted you myself you worthless P.O.S. 025TH 3RD watch last name ending in "ski" at diversey and cicero
what is going on in 25???????????

You are a dork, stop posting and get off your moms tete. So move to Texas, hey that's a great come back. I'm sure a lot of people would move if they were not entrenched. So when you retire you can stay in this shit hole and take it deep you blow hard.
I say run plates and advise the person if the tow to
Be coming up and then do a contact card. Kill two
birds with one stone.
And of coarse Rahm will not extend it another day.its
Saturday and he knows people will be parking there and
Spending money for the city. Then paying for the ticket,
tow and storage. What a Nice guy.
I ticket the tow truck drivers when ever I can. Stopping them and writing a violation or just letting them go
after a shirt chat might save a vehicle or two.
0103 hrs poster:
So you post like a true coward what you would to him and not post your name like a true man! If your family member is anything like you she deserved a ticket.
If I'm on my cell phone and I see a marked car I put my phone down. Better yet here is your chance, go to court and do exactly what you said you would do.
Stfu and get your activity for vri that's all you are good for.

Hey asswipe. What's wrong with marching into 25 today, broken leg or lack of balls?
Grow a pair and confront him today instead of posting this crap on the blog.

Take a chill pill killer-- I am not the officer in question from 025 but I don't agree with your attitude. My own mother was written by an officer in my own district for hitting a yippie bicyclist speeding down Elston ave near Logan. My mom in her 80's never mentioned my name to the officer. When she finally called me I said did you tell the officer you were my mom she said, "no, I don't want to abuse your authority, I am not entitled and I did hit that young man". Now, I know who the officer is and I have not confronted him or said anything about the ticket. Why? Because everyone eventually breaks the laws and gets caught. Your family member is not exempt from paying the piper once in awhile so get over it. You sound like a member of the cartel-- And you wonder why the public dislikes us and won't back us when we need them; like on our pension issues-- two sets of rules- 014/17YOS --oh, and I write ANOVs for cell phone use. I wouldn't say I was a worker-- just surviving.

It appears they have guys like this.
The answer isnt to say, stay off the cell phone and you wont be stopped. 90% of drivers use the cell phones and each occupation or profession offer each other professional courtesy whether it be doctors, dentists, lawyers, etc

It's officers with your mindset that make us all look bad to the public. The law is pretty clear, and most vehicles have hands free options or your family member could have used a Bluetooth device. Sure, the officer could have written a blue traffic contact card but that is at the discretion of the officer and you were not there were you--your family member could have been acting like a fool. I recently pulled over a vehicle for the same reason and the kid was very disrespectful, pretty much telling me what I was going to do because his cousin was a cop. I wrote the little punk. Not because he was a complete disrespectful ass, but because he could have caused an accident while pulling out into traffic while talking on his cell phone. Officer, you are only getting one side of the story. Before judging the issuing officer, why not take a deep breath and say shit happens. Think about how many other times your family member was on the cell phone in 025 and didn't get caught-hmmmmmmm-- don't throw stones

Dear Obviously butt hurt PO...
Do the job...or quit and GTFO of Chicago since this place has obviously gotten to you.
There are very few reasons I will pull ANYONE over for if the Plate doesn't ping my system in the first place...but I don't care who you are or are related to if I see a Cell in your Hands while you're driving.
Feel free to wander into the district and dare to call me out. If you don't work in 025...and you're not on duty and you don't have legit business in the district, I will have the Desk Sgt order you to leave you 19 year Holier than Thou Suckhole.
And it's called DOING My JOB regardless of What I think of Mgnmt or the Union.
It's time to throw everyone out of the FOP. That's what time it is. Don't forget just say no to Donahue.
The fly will get you!
DO NOT let the SNOW TOW truck drivers speed, run, red lights and stop signs, not use safety straps OR A FAVORITE WORK OR RUN WITHOUT HEADLIGHTS OR ROOF LIGHTS.
Another tactic is STACKING, they tow the cars they swipe a distance away to a lot or another street and go back for more. They stack as many as they can there and when they run out of time or cars then they tow them to the pound.
Sometimes that is why people go to the pound and find that their car isn't there yet or see their car on the truck waiting in line to get into the pound.
This is a BIG FUCKING RIP-OFF. Tell people to call their Aldermen; they can do something about it if they want to.
This City of Chicago SUCKS! All the fucking cameras and stupid ordinances!
I hate spending money in this town! Period!

I'll call the desk sergeant on you. Wow what an ass. I sure hope I have the pleasure of returning the favor to one of your family members. You are a suckhole and a kiss ass. Go some real police work. If you can handle it.

This must be Officer "ski" in 025 lol.
Hey "SKI", YOUR ANSWER WAS GOOD UNTIL YOU SAID THE "Desk Sgt" part (Who is that?). That made you sound like a wuss. Everyone knows how family members of PO's can be. Even if they weren't, you did your job. The PO should be a stand up guy and pay their fine.
I'll call the desk sergeant on you. Wow what an ass. I sure hope I have the pleasure of returning the favor to one of your family members. You are a suckhole and a kiss ass. Go some real police work. If you can handle
You have got to be kidding. Call the desk Sgt. on you.
This is what you have working the desk.

Tell ya what.
Meet me at the Gym at Fillmore and bring your gloves if you have the stones.
Is it hard to tell if a person is on a cell phone when you are driving behind them?
Two problems.
One officer writing ticket for the cities profit
2nd wanna be officer acting hard on keyboard acting like anyone really cares.
Both need to look around and see that this aint your grandads police department.
Love your DSS...

Will you bring Larry to play pop goes the weasel on violin?
I picture curly howard in his 1930's t-shirt with shorts on over his long johns.
"if you have the stones..."
Yeah, bring your ticket book.
what a loser.
Chicago Officer's are the biggest whiners. So cry and pout because this 025 Officer wrote a family member for being on a phone. How many times a day do you think the excuse of "wah, my father is a retired PO", "wah, my brother is a cop", "wah, I know so-so" gets used...? Just because you're a cop, doesn't give family or friends the right to act a fool. Then saying you'll storm in and create a scene in 25 because the guy wrote a ticket...? Just wow. I'd rather have the ticket writer on the street than some wannabe tough guy who thinks he is the ultimate cop who always does "real police work". News flash, tickets are a part of police work and if your family member doesn't like getting them, put the phone down. Simple.
Joe citizen here. Cell phone while driving. Okay wrong, but what a pimpy thing to ticket someone over. By all means LEO should yell at driver, but don't pimp the guy/gal like that. It's no wonder your tax-base is fleeing with this sort of bullshit. I know, I know, insert random story where random family was wiped out BC of teen on the cell phone.
News flash, tickets are a part of police work and if your family member doesn't like getting them, put the phone down. Simple.
Simple?
As simple as giving someone a damn play, asshole?
Seriously, how do you work on this department, in a busy place, where night after night you see some disgusting worthless vicious savages get away with murder (literally), and then can't be bothered to (1). stop chasing after petty nonsense, and (2). if you must kiss your bosses ass for a pimpy ticket, can you seriously not use discretion for (a). good, hard-working people and (b). the obvious recipient of our courtesy (your fellow officer and his family)?
If you can't handle that, if it all seems like it's just too much for you...
You simply are "one of those" cops.
I came on 17 years ago and was lucky enough to go to the busiest place to learn, so that a bunch of good cops could tell me how things work.
I hope I don't end up with that blister on my ass that doubles as a brain like the one you use to think that you are so mighty and important as to go around being "that asshole" cop.
No damn common sense. Big headed wind bag who people will be glad to see gone when you finally retire only to find out you were never that important afterall, you no-life loser.
So because you're in a "busy" district, you are the almighty, sour puss, know it all super cop huh? You sound like a great partner. I can't wait to write someone you know so you can cry about that too, lol. And it's always about discretion, but when some douche has to immediately shout "I know so-so", or "my friend/brother/ father/homeboy is a cop so you can't write me". Sure I can and I will if you're a douche. Put the phone down. Stop breaking laws. Period.
"...How did you know it was OK to park there in the past?..."
I told him.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
Please don't quarrel boys. I like my north side police cute and happy.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
"...I'll have the desk sergeant order you to leave..."
Gurly man.
