When a sign says 2 hour parking excet 6pm-8am..

[Syringer]

Is it safe to park at 4pm until 10am the next day..or what?

 

[emmpee]

sounds good to me

 

[pulse8]

Yup.

 

[silverpig]

That's what I'd figure...

Uh...let me get this straight:

6pm - 8am (next morning) you are not allowed to park.

However, you want to park at 4pm and leave it there until 10am? Unless I'm missing something, I think you'll get a ticket.

Aren't you only allowed 2 hours to park, and secondly, you would be parking during 6pm-8am. So it seems like you are violating 2 things.

no, he's ok. its 2 hour parking in the day and as long as you like the rest of the time.

oh wait, is it saying from 6pm-8am, you are allowed to park as long as you want?

if so, then yes you should be able to park there.

I have a feeling that if you did that at my school, the parking nazi would cite you for "circumventing regulations"... a $40 fine, $50 and waiver of right to appeal if not paid within ten calender days.

"incidental fees"
Retarded parking citations(such as back in/pull through parking)
additional fee A
additional fee B

The government is very inefficient at stuff, but one thing state schools are highly efficient is collecting fees and fines in a tax like manner to raise profit, then distribute the profit over retarded cause such as providing subsidies for services 90% of students don't use, such as childcare.

I don't think so.

Unless you're talking about booby trap university parking signs, it'd say so such as "no parking 4-6PM", '2hr parking 8-4AM" .

That's perfectly legal. If there's a meter, the meter has to be full up until 6:00 and then it dosen't matter. If there's no meter, then you are obeying the sign by parking there for 2 hours during the 8AM - 6PM and then parking overnight.

Not sure if they could do anything about it the next day but since at 8 your 2 hours starts again, I'd say you'd be fine.

You can park there, and if you get a ticket, you an fight them like you always do:

OMG I'm MATLOCK!! Got out of my 2nd speeding ticket!

Whoo, got out of my speeding ticket!!

 

[TuxDave]

Sounds good to me.... go for it

not if they mark you before six pm the first day and they come by and see you before 10 am the next day, they'll ticket you

That's exactly what I was thinking.

If you get there before 10am. In Philly, the PPA will be WAITING with the ticket written at 10am. They are nazi's.
