I agree with mike, and I don’t even know what picayune means.

Agree with Jessmiss. Ive never seen such a group of picayune whiners than the folks in dumbo – if its not that there are too many ice cream trucks in the neighborhood, then people would be bitchin’ that there aren’t enough ice cream trucks in the neighborhood. You folks need to spend your time counting your blessing that you don’t have real problems, ‘cuz if you did, you wouldn’t give a @%&# about how many *&@*#$% ice cream trucks are in the area IN THE SUMMER!

People need to lighten up – it’s Summertime – For godsakes, don’t you have anything better to do with your time and energy than to worry about how many freakin’ ice cream trucks are in an area? Get a life!

The cops should be out there issuing idling fines!

Or maybe face the other direction, so the exhaust pipe goes into the street, and not into the walkway and stairwell.

I agree with epc, the fumes under the bridge are noxious. I wonder whether Marty Markowitz would really want the first thing that tourists smell when they arrive under his new Welcome to Brooklyn signs to be the diesel exhaust of an ice cream truck. The drive ought to be required to park anywhere but directly under the overpass where the fumes collect.

The fumes can be pretty noxious. I don’t mind the noise and even the it-will-drive-one-insane jingle (best when two trucks play the same jingle, but out of phase). There was a truck parked on Washington at the Bridge walkway exit and the fumes were just sort of gathering under the overpass, gagging anyone who’d walk by.
