NYPD car - New York City

NYPD car

Be good when visiting New York

New York is definitely a very liberal city with much to do and many liberties. Don't think for a second that you can abuse of us New Yorkers though, especially after the events of Septemeber 11, 2001. We've always been a tough crowd. If you misbehave, you may take a ride in this NYPD car.

So please come, have fun, enjoy yourself, and behave!

TAXI!!!! - New York City

TAXI!!!!

Traffic, a New York nightmare!

During rush hour, New Yorkers tend to be a bit stressed. I would strongly suggest that as a tourist, you avoid public transportation between 07:30 am to 09:00 am and between 04:00 pm and 6:30pm. Avoid the trains and buses during these hours. If possible take a cab or walk. You may get stuck in traffic with a cab but at least your not surrounded by 200 people.
