Illinios: Chicago
I just got a notice in the mail for a ticket that was issued on 12/04/06
I never got the ticket?
Well it is suppose to be for:
"Residential Permit Parking"
I am not a resident of Chicago, but am I a student who goes to UIC, so I live in downtown.
I use the GUEST/Temporary parking permit. Each one lasts 24 hrs. Everyday I put up a new one. I checked my car, and i saw i have a sticker for 12/04/06.
I keep the stickers for a month and then dispose them.
The only reason I can think of the reason behind the ticket is that I usually dont stick the stickers on my windshield. It ruins the whole windshield making it greasy, with some small amount of paper sticky when you remove it.
If its like a city sticker i would do and then remove it with a solution. Since I have to put one up everyday, I just put them on the right side of my windshield on the right end corner of the dashboard!
Thatz the only reason i can think, that the person who was checking for the permits missed my sticker as it was not STUCK/TAPED/GLUED on the windshield, but it was just placed on the right far end corner on the dash!
I have done that for about 2 semesters, and never gotten a ticket for this.
I have gotten ticket b4, for someone removing/peeling off my number plate sticker, i sent them a copy of the proof of my purchase and it was removed.
But any idea if I can contest this one? or will i just have to pay it?
