New Yorkers instinctively avoid raving street-corner lunatics. They don’t know if the psycho might suddenly come at them with a knife, so they cross to the other side to be safe.
There’s no street to cross when the lunatic is the man they elected as their mayor. But if there was, they might get run over by e-bikers to whom Zohran (Madman) Mamdani gave license to kill.
Because he wants to shield them from ICE, motorized bikers can now speed as fast as they want yet face only a civil ticket. This, even as Madman wants to slow auto traffic to a 10 mile per hour crawl.
It isn’t breaking news that traffic lights and human life mean nothing to e-bikers. I watch them zoom up First Avenue, and sometimes down the one-way uptown avenue, from the safe perch of my 16th-floor windows.
In a part of town with more restaurants and fast-casual food places than a neighborhood needs, nothing matters to deliverers except this:
General Tso’s chicken must go through! Never mind collateral damage to human beings.
I watch frightened pedestrians, many of them elderly or impaired, recoil just in time to avoid being struck.
‘No repercussions’
They remind me that three years ago, a wrong-way, hit-and-run Postmates biker ran down my colleague Doree Lewak on the Upper West Side and left her permanently maimed. And of “Gone Girl” actress Lisa Banes, who was killed by one.
And of how my wife narrowly escaped being crippled by a restaurant delivery guy near Columbus Circle. She escaped with only a bruise thanks to her quick reflexes — and luck.
I’m fortunate to have good peripheral vision and high alertness at age 76, but they aren’t enough. A firing squad gives a condemned man better odds than a doped-up, headphones-wearing e-biker coming at 35 mph.
Delivery companies have their greedy hands in e-bike anarchy.
But they’re blameless compared to a mayor who unshackles the oarsmen from legal accountability.
Top cop Jessica Tisch wrote in a New York Post opinion column in May 2025, after former Mayor Eric Adams imposed criminal court summons on errant e-bikers, that a loophole “rendered [traffic court] summons essentially worthless.”
Because e-bikers need no licenses, she wrote, they “can simply ignore a traffic summons with virtually no meaningful repercussions.”
Now, Mayor Madman has pulled the NYPD’s teeth to cause repercussions.
He isn’t merely out of step with capitalist New York City. He’s a grinning devil who charms as he kills. Ted Bundy was good at it, too. The mayor is not Ted Bundy, but he possesses the mass murderer’s sinister, seductive wiles.
His victims include New Yorkers who were gullible enough to vote for him based on his pledge of a rent freeze and free buses.
They’ll come to regret it if he gets his way on raising taxes — or the next time they cross the street.
