So apparently, if you happen to be a foreign diplomat, you’re not expected to pay your parking fines. A recent look at unpaid parking tickets in NYC shows that we are owned more than $16 million from people that don’t even live here. Egypt seems to be the worst of the bunch, with about $2 million owed.

So will the city be able to recover these funds? Or maybe we can teach diplomats how to park properly? One thing’s for certain - that’s a lot of cash and New York could certainly use each and every dollar.
