Open Data & parking tickets

I Quant NY: The NYPD Was Systematically Ticketing Legally Parked Cars for Millions of Dollars a Year- Open Data Just Put an End to It.

I'm not a fan of the rule change about pedestrian ramps, but given that those are the rules, this is both an interesting use of open data and how the city responded to it.
