Top Violators
Clear Plates is a fleet violation management platform built for commercial fleet operators, Amazon Delivery Service Partners, and vehicle leasing companies in New York City. The platform automatically scans official city violation databases every night across DOF, OATH/ECB, and BIC to identify parking, camera, idling, and environmental violations tied to fleet vehicles. It assigns liability to the responsible party by matching violation dates against driver assignments and rental windows, tracks penalty escalation deadlines to prevent fines from doubling, and enables bulk payment through Stripe. NYC issues 16.1 million violations per year generating $1.088 billion in fines, and a single $115 parking ticket can exceed $1,000 within 100 days through automatic late fees, default judgments, boot fees, and tow charges. Clear Plates pricing starts at $295 per month for fleets up to 50 vehicles.

The Problem
How Many NYC Violations Is Your Fleet Missing?
Penalties Double in Silence
A $115 parking ticket becomes $175 in 30 days, $205 in 60, $265 in 90. Then judgment, interest, and boot risk. Most fleet managers find out too late.
5 Agencies, Zero Coordination
DOF, OATH, TLC, DSNY, DEP. Each has its own portal, its own timeline, its own penalties. No single view of what your fleet owes.
Who Had the Vehicle?
A violation from 6 weeks ago on a vehicle that has been through 3 drivers. Who is responsible? Without matching issue dates to assignments, you are guessing.
Rental Fleets Get Hit Twice
Leasing companies and DSPs need to know which violations happened during their rental window, not before or after. Current tools do not make this distinction.

What Fleet Operators Are Saying
We found $14K in chargebacks we did not know about. Violations that were our drivers' responsibility, sitting there unpaid for months.

NYC Fleet Program
The NYC Commercial Fleet Program, Without the Runaround
NYC's Commercial Fleet Program gives enrolled fleets consolidated violation billing, online hearings, and discounted stipulated fines on dozens of common parking codes. Common savings include a full $95 waiver on No Standing Except Truck Loading and a $50 cut on Double Parking, the two codes that hit delivery fleets hardest.
But the city doesn't make it easy. The application is a paper form. Eligibility requires zero outstanding non-judgment debt before you can enroll. And the forms you need are scattered across multiple nyc.gov pages, including a separate lease rider for any plate not registered in your business name.
We pulled everything into one place. Grab the official DOF forms on the right, read our full walkthrough for eligibility rules and the stipulated fine savings schedule, or let Clear Plates clear your outstanding violations first so you can enroll without delays.
Three programs, one enrollment
Regular Fleet Program. Consolidated billing and online hearings for any business that owns or leases commercial vehicles in NYC. Open to every fleet, no commercial-plate requirement.
Stipulated Fine Program (SFP). Adds the discounted fines on common parking codes. Requires commercial plates and that your fleet makes deliveries.
Commercial Abatement Program (CAP). Same discounted fines, but for fleets doing pick-ups and service calls instead of deliveries.
All Commercial Fleet Forms
Lease rider, plate update, termination, and contact update forms.

Questions
Frequently Asked
We connect directly to NYC's official violation databases — the same records city agencies use. Once you register your vehicles, Clear Plates automatically scans DOF (parking and camera), OATH/ECB (idling and environmental), and BIC datasets every night. You don't need to check each plate manually.
Clear Plates works for fleets of all sizes. Our Starter plan covers up to 50 vehicles, and we scale up from there. Even a 10-vehicle fleet can save hours of manual lookup time each week.
Yes. This is one of the core problems we solve. Set your rental windows per vehicle and Clear Plates automatically filters to show only violations that occurred during your period of responsibility. Anything outside your window is clearly separated.
Looking up violations manually requires you to search one plate at a time across multiple city databases. Clear Plates scans your entire fleet overnight, matches violations to drivers, tracks penalty escalation deadlines, and gives you exportable reports. What takes hours manually takes seconds here.
All plans are month-to-month with no long-term commitments. You can cancel anytime from your billing settings, and your access continues through the end of your paid period.
Most fleets are up and running in under 10 minutes. Create your account, add your vehicles (or import via CSV), and Clear Plates starts scanning immediately. Your full violation history is typically available within the first sync cycle.
Yes. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest. Payments are handled through Stripe, a PCI-compliant processor, so we never see or store card details. Each organization's data is fully isolated. See our security page at clearplates.com/security for full details.
Currently, yes. Clear Plates is purpose-built for NYC, covering DOF parking and camera violations, OATH/ECB hearings (including idling), and BIC business violations. We know the NYC violation landscape inside and out.
