What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
The other day I parked in a section of town that I had not been to in over 6 months. They have always had metered parking there before but on this day all the meters were gone. The meter poles were still there but looking up and down the street the tops (meters) were all missing. I didn't see any signs regarding parking so I assumed that they must be in the process or replacing the meters and it was my lucky day and I didn't have to pay the meter...how could I?
Well when I came back to my car it had a ticket. It was pointed out to me that about 4-5 car spaces ahead of me and 4-5 spaces behind me that there is a centralized pay station and that the space has a small number painted on the sidewalk next to it that you use to pay for your spot. The reason I say it was "pointed out to me" is that from my parking space these centralized pay stations are about 95-98% blocked by trees and signs. Both the one ahead and behind my space. I took a lot of pictures so i have proof of this if needed.
The ticket is $45 and if they call me in it's about an hour drive in and another hour drive back. So it will be worth it if I have a good chance to win but not worth it if i don't.What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
