What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
I received a parking ticket in San Francisco for parking at a parking meter without paying but I had a handicapped placard on the mirror since my passenger was handicapped. I sent in an appeal with a copy of the placard and a letter explaining the problem, but the San Francisco MTA says the ticket was valid and I still need to pay it. They gave me a chance to have a hearing, but I have to pay to get a hearing. How can they say the ticket is valid when the rules of handicapped placards clearly state that if it is shown in the window a person can park at a meter without paying?
