Amazon trucks take the full 9 million dollar hit while taxis Ubers and other delivery fleets get a free pass…
This is straight up selective punishment…
So not all taxis, delivery, Ubers and others.
Just the rich guy that wipes his ass with million dollar bills?
Commies are idiots.
Amazon should pull all of Amazon out of New York.

Mamdani Administration Recovers More Than $9 Million in Unpaid Amazon Idling Fines
NEW YORK – Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani, New York City Department of Finance (DOF) Commissioner Richard Lee, and the New York City Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) Commissioner Lisa F. Garcia today announced that the City has successfully recovered more than $9 million from Amazon after the company’s delivery vehicles accrued fines due to idling violations.
“Amazon is worth $2 trillion. Yet, it did not deign to pay the millions of dollars it racked up in unpaid fines as its’ trucks illegally polluted our air and forced New Yorkers to breathe in their exhaust. We are going to collect every dollar they owe the people of this city,” said Mayor Mamdani. “These laws exist for a reason: cleaner air, healthier communities, and a city where corporations are held to the same standard as everyone else. Today we are making clear that no company – no matter how large or powerful – is above the law.”
