>I often wonder what would happen if they removed all parking from one side of the street to make long loading-only lanes, and strictly enforced it to prevent people from stopping on both sides.

They do this a lot in midtown - commercial only parking during business hours to allow loading/unloading AND you don't need the cops to enforce it because the traffic enforcement people can just write tickets

just fyi, the traffic enforcement people are cops. Giuliani had them moved under NYPD because otherwise they kept getting assaulted.
