John Dumelo yesterday went out on a day’s fun ride on the streets of New York but found himself in an uncomfortable situation – minutes later.

Dumelo who had parked his car at a location that violates traffic rules, was handed a spot fine for a parking violation offence by city officials. “Just parked for a few mins and bam! Parking ticket d**m! Mscheeeeeew. New york city officials dont play #boysabr3”, he posted on his Facebook page.


In the city of New York, you can be charged for traffic violation by going through a red light or being filmed driving, parking or standing in a bus lane.


You must respond to any ticket received within 30 days of the issue date by either paying or pleading not guilty and requesting a hearing.

If you do not respond by the 30th day, a penalty of $10.00 will be added to parking fines and $25.00 to camera violations.


Additional penalties will continue to be added until you respond or pay what you owe. All payments must be in US currency.
