Parking cops hate overcast/rainy days...

Yet I love them. I can park in the same hour parking spot for about 6 hours before they bother to come around. It's nice. I check for chalk every hour or so anyhow... 😉

chalk? Is this the 1950s? Everywhere that I go they use ultraviolet paint.

They chalked my tires a couple years ago here.

Parking cops, lol. More like glorified tax collectors.

what do they write with chalk?

i'm guessing they mark cars to come back to see if they are still there?

<lives in arkansas, never seen a parking meter.

They make a line on the tire and on the ground to see whether or not you have moved your car.

Chalk works well because it'll disappear quickly and has no signifigant environmental impact, but is visible from a distance.
