What is the name of your state? NY
I got a $115 ticket for double parking during street cleaning time. It is customary in Brooklyn, NY to double park your car for 1,5 hours during street cleaning time. I've been double-parking twice a week every week for about 10 monthes on the same street near my office. (and for 5 years on other streets in Brooklyn) Never got a ticket - but last week.
I know that law does not provide for any break for double parking just because it's cleaning time. But actually I never heard of a person ticketed for that.
Is there a defense? Does judge have a soft spot for double-parking during street cleaning time?
I' going to fight this ticket anyway. I took pictures of the same street this week with 17 (seventeen) cars doubleparked bumper-to-bumper during cleaning time on the same block. Two local residents were so kind and gave me written statements as to "I live on this block for 7 years, always double-park during cleaning time, I know 10 other neighbors that double-park, nobody ever got a ticket."
What are my chances?What is the name of your state?
