DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
A police officer who was on patrol as part of the Queens Auto Larceny Unit was justified in approaching the defendant's double-parked vehicle at 1 A.M., upon observing that it had no license plate in the front and a 20-day nonresident temporary plate in the rear window (see, People v. Ocasio, 85 N.Y.2d 982, 985 ;People v. Liverpool, 160 A.D.2d 894, 895 ).
The defendant's remaining contentions do not warrant reversal, as any error was harmless in light of the overwhelming evidence of guilt (see, People v. Crimmins, 36 N.Y.2d 230, 241-242 ).
BRACKEN, J.P., THOMPSON, SULLIVAN, and KRAUSMAN, JJ., concur.
