Best Answer

You can get ticketed for it, but that hardly ever happens. Most cops in New York City have much more important things to be doing. You can also get a ticket for jaywalking, and many times I've jaywalked right in front of a cop car, and they've never stopped me for it.

It is typically considered assault on a police officer everywhere in the United States, although there are no laws anywhere in the United States specifically about spitting at an officer.
