## Official Statement

The article reports that NYPD officer James Giovansanti as the owner of a Staten Island pickup truck that, according to city camera data, accumulated 547 speeding tickets and 20 red-light tickets since 2022. The piece says he received 187 camera-issued tickets in 2025 alone, describes him as one of the city’s worst repeat speeders, and argues that his driving record poses a serious public-safety risk, especially near schools and along Richmond Terrace.

It also says the NYPD has not disciplined him, with a department spokesperson stating the tickets are unrelated to his job duties. Streetsblog uses the case to argue for stronger enforcement against repeat camera-ticket offenders, including passage of New York’s proposed “Stop Super Speeders Act,” which would require speed limiters for the worst repeat offenders. The article includes comments from a former NYPD officer and criminal justice professor who says such a pattern should trigger serious internal discipline.
