Veteran Wrongly Ticketed by Cop Car | New York City News
Description
An Army vet living near the Canadian border got a speeding ticket from a Brooklyn camera — only to discover the car caught on tape was an NYPD police vehicle with her disabled veteran license plate. Despite appealing online and visiting the DMV, she faced mounting fines and threats of license suspension, especially since she relied on her car for Uber gigs and had limited income. After reaching out to 7 On Your Side, the case was escalated to the city’s Department of Finance, resulting in the ticket being cleared, her $75.34 refunded, and her driving record saved. A powerful reminder: when you’re wrongfully cited, gather all evidence and submit it properly — your one appeal chance matters.
