Yahoo! Picks - bringing you the best of the Web since 1995

There are a lot of ways to park a car illegally in Manhattan. You could block the sidewalk, obstruct the crosswalk, cozy up to the fire hydrant, overstay the meter, or pull up the parking break under a sign proclaiming "No Stopping Any Time." And that's just recounting the activity of municipal employees. According to the outraged citizens behind this site, "a lack of enforcement and an unchecked proliferation of government-issued parking permits" has allowed (or encouraged) public employees to leave their rides in any number of illegal spots. Uncivil Servants documents these violations with photographs, interactive maps, testimonials, and a list of top offenders. It's an impressive display, not only of parking pique, but of web design and social activism working together. As for the discourteous officials currently stalled in the position of Most Violations? Say it ain't so, officer—it's the NYPD.
