Yup, and I was 10 feet infront of my car each time it happened....and I usuccessfully argued each time.


I owe the city of Boston $65 amd the City of Watertown, hmmmm, they did not check off a violation.....


my luck =🙁
 
1st violation: I was on my way to my car to go to work and when i i saw my car across the street, I bent down to tie my shoe. I look up while I was fixing my shoe lace and i see the lady approaching my car. I jump up and run to my car while almost tripping on my shoe lace. She is about put down my plate number, but I alert her that i am gonna move now. Her reply "once I start, i cannot stop". I argue for about 10 min. SHe doesn't budge. She gives me a ticket for : unpaid meter.

2nd: Had to go to CVS before work. Didn't realize the who street was Commercial vehocle parking only from 8 - 11. I pay the meter, but it does no good b/c teh meter is not in eefect anyways. I come out of CVS, i see the same woman give me another ticket. The woman just gives me an evil smile and hands me the ticket.

3rd: Dunkin Donuts run infornt of where I work. I pay meter, it has 20 min. I proceed to get my yucky breakfast. I ask for sausage, egg, cheese on crossant (sp?). they give me egg and cheese only. I wait for my order again, not realizing this is taking 20 min. I get my order, run out, and *gasp*....I see the SAME lady....just kidding....I see a hot woman next to my car that turned out to be a meter maid (she had a police badge on...so i guess maybe an officer). I begged he rnot to give me a tocket, but she told me to argue about in court.

What a bitch...usually the meter people are nice enough that if you leave before they finish doing the ticket, they'll let you off.

the first one I am pissed about. The 2nd, I should have known because I live in that area. I shoud dhave walked there instead, but i knew if i walked to CVS and back to my car, i would get a ticket. Oh well, I got two. The third, I am just annoyed at that one.

The good news....I can pay the two Boston tickets by donating a toy w. receipt for toys for tots. They toy has to be non-violent and equal or greater value of the ticket. I guess i can buy a gift and try price matching later. I wish it was buy a gift for anyone who works for the city, b/c I would have just got that meter maid a .69 "massager" off of Amazon.

Ah man, I mean Welleselly (sp?). I am so mad at these tickets that I cannot get the town i work in right😉. I work on RT 16, which is off Arsenal St. I am guessing you go to Babson or Bently?
 
😀 If the first ticket has a date and time on it, when you go to court for the 2nd one, show the ticket from the first one and say "doesn't this show that I couldn't have been at the other location?" When the meter maid shows up to say that she saw your body physically in both places, then say, aww, that's okay. What I really wasn't trying to prove that I was innocent, I was really just proving what a jerk the meter maid is. I was by my car both times when she wrote the ticket, and the 2nd time, I *did* have money in the meter.
 
Dude, you'll never be able to hack the Gibson alone. Even with passwords and knowing where to go it's still gonna take you at least 10 minutes.

Sucky dude. Be more careful next time eh? Parking tickets are expensive.
 
Those who cannot learn from history are doomed to repeat it. You're obviously a hardcore career serial parker who can't be rehabilitated. They ought to impound your car and force you to get around on a razor scooter.

Yeah, I go to Bentley. Are you a student?

 
those 3 tickets amounted to $65? I got one for $115 two weeks ago for parking at a hydrant for like 30 seconds, in NYC.

Or you could pricematch it and donate MORE toys to the children, you cheap bastard. 😉

(Since they're probably going to require the receipt as proof, you're probably not going to be able to get away with pricematching)
