That's it.
I am one step away from going completely bezerk at someone at Parking Enforcement.
Hot on the tails of getting a $40 parking ticket not more than one week ago in front of my house, I found not one but TWO MORE parking tickets on my windshield today after my lunch meeting.
I have been more than careful about displaying my permit since last week's ticket, so I was completely shocked to see two tickets on my windshield today. I have no idea why I have ANY tickets because I removed the permit from my rearview mirror when I got in my car and drove off to pick up ProfessorEric for our meeting. And they said I didn't display my permit properly... but I did!
The other ticket is so completely bogus. It was issued for yesterday for a street more than 6 blocks away... someplace I would never park. I feel like I can legitimately contest this one, but how do I prove that my permit WAS properly displayed for the other one?
In total, this is $120 of parking tickets in ONE WEEK, IN FRONT OF MY OWN HOUSE WHERE I HAVE A VALID PERMIT TO PARK. Although I was mad about the first one, I was willing to concede that it was my own fault... but the other two... NO WAY.
It makes me not want to pay ANY of them.

Posted by: keith at September 17, 2004 08:04 AMdoes your digital camera or your camera phone record date and time of pictures taken? because from now on, I'd be taking a picture every time you walk away from that car. sounds like your parking authorities have decided you're a problem - maybe you can catch them in the act and ask them what the issue is. regardless, I see a court date in your future.

i would say that one person per ticket should be about right. you can even put up little stick figures along the drivers side door...showing how many have been run over.
as a warning notice to anyone about to give you another ticket.
