What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? New York
Hi,
I appreciate your time with this. I received two parking violations this past weekend for parking by a bus stop. I left my car overnight so I got ticketed for both days. Crazy thing is, the bus stop must have been 70 feet up the block and I was separated by a fire hydrant, a van and three or four cars. I researched and the law says the bus stop extends to the end of the corner, if there are no signs, which there were none. However, does being separated by a fire hydrant have any relevancy? Also, on one ticket they indicated that I was 20 ft from the end of the block and on another they said I was 30 ft. Do I have a chance to get at least one thrown out due to an inaccurate description of the place of occurrence? I was probably 10-15 feet away from the end of the block.
Thanks everyone for your help.
Best,
R
