Hey man, that is NYC, folks strip cars on the street and the cops walk right by them. NYC has lots of laws, only a few of them seem to get enforced. If fact, I am pretty sure that NYC already has a law requiring a permit for any photo/film/video operation that obstructs traffic, vehicle or pedestrian, in any way that is not enforced.
