> I used NYC's lovely 311 app to file a complaint against just such a driver for shouting at me after he drove at me head-on in a 2-way bike lane. I expect he'll face a significant fine.

I'd wager against that outcome from a due process and practicality standpoint. If dropping a dime on someone using their ID number would result in a significant fine absent other evidence, there would be chaos.



The fines happen. The evidence is photographs and my testimony if the driver doesn't plead guilty.

One Twitter user documents his use of the process quite thoroughly: https://twitter.com/D00RZ0NE
