Default pic doesn't prove that he was parked like that at the time the ticket was issued

(he could've moved the car before taking the pic)

...just playing devil's advocate

Default comes down to my word against the parking maid.. which is an annoying position to be in

BTW, I was parked that way when I got the ticket.

So now what? ..I bet the city would just side with the maid. This sort of thing is so annoying to me. For all I know, the car that was parked ahead of me last night could have pushed my car back.. after all, the front license plate is all bent up.

Default I'd be curious how the statute reads regarding being "in" the zone. Common sense

would say were OK, but technically, it's probably any little bit hanging into the zone.

Default My advice? pay the ticket and get this over with...

it'll be a pain in the *** to fight this one and believe me, most likely you'll lose.
