Obama’s former Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel said “Never let a crisis go to waste”, something that the government of New York City seems to have taken to heart.
As the biggest snow storm this year advances towards America’s largest population center, the authorities have basically declared martial law. Citing the massive storm as too big a threat to disregard, the New York Police Department is threatening to arrest anyone who travels on the road in the coming days.
Calling the radical measure a “travel ban”, the NYPD say it is meant to protect New Yorkers from the potentially devastating weather. Drivers do not even need to be committing a crime to be arrested: they simply need to be on the road for law enforcement to apprehend them.

That headline is,definitely misleading.
Are they really going to arrest citizens for getting out. I read the article and it sounds like lies. Someone that lives in New York tell us.
Everything on the internet is true
– Abraham Lincoln
No…lol but our idiot mayor closed the streets and threatened to ticket any cars out during the storm….
You mean to tell me you can’t even go out an p**s on sidewalk? It’s legal now! Should be able to go when you got to! Are they going to tell us when we can go an can’t.
No it’s not
The police chief said you have until 2:30 if you are out on the roads after that you are possibly (meaning if they catch you) are going to be arrested and your car possibly towed
That’s what he said
It is not the government’s place to tell people what they can and cannot do regardless of any choices they make!!!!
Many secondary streets were also left unplowed and Diblasio opened the schools …..worst mayor we ever had. I miss Guilliani!
any cop that tries to arrest me would be shot immediately. a travel ban is unconstitutional and any one that enforces it is a traitor. i will kill them on the spot for treason
Did you watch the video?
He said you have until 2:30 after that if your caught out driving you are subject to arrest
