"Bicycle Registration Program discourages theft of bicycles by engraving a serial number on the bike in a discreet location and affixing a decal to the bicycle identifying it as registered with the NYPD. If the decal fails to prevent theft, removal of the decal leaves behind the word 'void' which alerts police that the bicycle has been stolen. Police are then able to track down the owner through the engraved serial number."
Department of Environmental Protection: Sustainable giveaways and information for homeowners.
