Worst parking ticket ever

[freebee]

So i'm driving along a few weeks ago in NYC, slowed down on a sidestreet to drop off a passenger. Traffic cop walks by, glares at me (and the vehicle)...waves me on. Today, I get a parking ticket in the mail. Apparently the fool didn't have the balls to actually give the ticket to me, but pulled up the info from his scanner as I drove by.

$45 bucks, parking during "street cleaning"??? Hehe. Ahh, the injustice of living in the big city. Totally bogus ticket...but you can't fight tickets anymore, since the handheld scanner pulls all MVR info, so all he needed was my plate #.

I love you.

Yeah, don't slow down in the city.

Did you actually stop in the middle of the street?

No, find a proper place to park even if it's an inconvenience.

Yeah, I did stop. But very briefly. I was still in the car, vehicle was in drive. Probably the cop was just in a bad mood or something. I'll attribute this to a tax for living in the city. Or this could be God's way of getting back at me for stealing library books as a kid. And I did urinate in the public pool last summer.

Perhaps you can contest it.. ie. car was still in drive.
