Michael Russnow: You Can Be Ticketed for Feeding a Parking Meter After the Time Limit: How Many People Really Know? - Business on The Huffington Post

Here in the Bronx, NYC we have a conundrum of the same. The ticket agents have handhelds that print now (after the suicide of a Queens borough president over a previous one's scandal, gerrymander we share) and Catch 22, if you move the car to the opposite side from 9:30 to 11 am (used to be 8-11) they won't ticket for $45. However if you move and double park your neighbors car for the 1 1/2 hour you will be ticketed at 11:00am for $115 for double parking! I am willing to wager no cars are ticketed before 11:00 am or a small war might erupt, to park within walking distance. However it is illegal to double park at any time anywhere, but many, many have to trying to aid the city street sweeping, garbage pickup, etc. I am currently in possession of an 11:00 am ticket, having parked next to my landlady's and senior citizen's car.  Michael Russnow: You Can Be Ticketed for Feeding a Parking Meter After the Time Limit: How Many People Really Know? - Business on The Huffington Post
