    I have never once gotten a parking ticket because I READ STREET SIGNS. However, in the past five months three people have driven my car and all three of them have gotten a parking ticket on it.

    One of them being today and said ticket is thirty dollars. What kinda shit is that anyways? Thirty bucks.... sheesh.....

    Did you tell the cop you were just going to get it inspected? I got pulled over before with a car that just missed inspection and they just gave me a ten day paper to get inspected and send back within ten days (no ticket).

    I used to get parking tickets on my Mitsu van when I worked in DC all the time. Mostly for parking on the wrong side of the street during street cleaning day. How about cleaning the crack dealers off the street nd worry about sweeping later?

    I lit the citations on fire and tossed them out the window. And they really couldn't trace them back to me because the plates were borrowed from a friend's Honda that had a blown engine. I probably owe the District of Columbia about $3000.00 in parking fines going back to the late 90s. Fuck 'em.

    I have a friend who parks in handicap spots on purpose (I honestly don't know why though, it isn't the most logical thing to do), anyhow... I think he has over a 1000$ in tickets by now... his plan is to leave the U.S. forever...

    He's a great person, yet not the brightest one.

    OK that's just wrong.

    You're supposed to park in the sidewalk across the wheelchair ramp. So yeah he's not too bright.

    I thought that the ultimate thing would be to park over handicapped people.




    Anyhow, I don't get parking tickets because I don't drive... uhhum... I'm cool like that.

    The ticket my husband got today was because of street cleaning. The sign was about a half block away. Wtf. :)

    That's DC/MD's major form of revenue. You don't think these amazingly high property taxes we're paying are actually going toward education, do you? We have some of the nicest public schools in thenation and the highestpaid teachers (I know, my wife is one of them) and we're still churning out illiterate crackheads.

    I've seen that happen with snow-plowing....They just cover you car with snow so you have to dig it out, usually by that time the snow is turning to ice and then give you a parking ticket to boot....

    what I dont get is people thinkin they are so much better than you because they dont own a car, nor do they drive one.

    I feel good about owning a car because I dont have to take public transportation, or depend on friends to drive me everywhere.

    I am better than you because I don't own a car.

    Deal with it.
















    Seriously though, only stuck up pseudo liberals think this way, I hope.
