De Blasio jaywalks as he preaches road safety [also exceeded speed limit, ignored stop signs]

Now he’s jaywalking!

Mayor de Blasio and his security detail crossed a Brooklyn street against the light Friday on his way to his morning workout – just a day after his SUV blew through two stop signs and was speeding in Queens.

Exclusive video taken by The Post caught the mayor — dressed in a “Brooklyn” sweatshirt, slacks and sneakers — chatting on his cellphone as he sauntered across 11th Street on 6th Avenue in Park Slope, ignoring the orange hand on the traffic signal that clearly warns pedestrians not to cross.

In January, NYPD precincts launched an aggressive jaywalking ticket blitz that had de Blasio’s support. His Friday morning flouting of traffic safety rules came a day after deBlasio was caught on camera riding shotgun in a speeding SUV.

His mayoral black two-unit convoy was videotaped by a CBS 2 News crew as it blew through two stop signs in Queens and clocked at nearly 60 miles an hour in a 45 mile per hour zone, and 40 -45 mph in a 30 mph zone. They were not using lights or sirens.

I was walking my dog one evening in our local park.

My dog was as always on the leash.

Suddenly this big brute of a dog came charging after my dog, balking loudly. I managed to keep the two apart.

Then this lady jogger came jogging buy and spoke as if calling for someone. And the dog ran to her.

I ran after them, and loudly was reminding her that our city laws require a dog be on the leash at all times in the public.

Turning and jogging slowly backwards, she looked at me and said: “It’s alright, I am cop.”

You see. Some people when obtaining a position of governmental authority think THEY have risen above the law.

Yeah he jaywalks. Big friggin deal. Like a Lewinski, we should really be going over DiBlassio for being a MARXIST SCUM.

We went after Clinton but are afraid to go after zer0, who is a constitution ignoring marxist criminal. Let him jay walk. Maybe he’ll get run over(one can always hope)
