got bored at work, so thought i'd share this. last friday at lunch i pull into a parking lot. the first spot i found, i realized was too small. i see this spot behind me so i back into the space, lock my car and go eat. my coworker comes in and tells me i'm getting a parking ticket. i don't recall seeing any no parking signs so i go out and speak with parking enforcement. i ask why i was getting the ticket. the old lady replies, "because you can't read signs." ok i thought, i look around and the only sign i see is "2 hour parking." so i says "2 hour paking." the lady replies no, the other sign. i look around again and all i see is "2 hour parking." i tell her so and she said, there are other signs. so i look around again, there it was, "no tail in parking" all by itself on a light post and behind a truck. i'm speechless. i'm not sure what the rules are for parking, but i never thought i'd get a parking ticket for parking in tail first. it wasn't one of those slanted parking lots either, where it's one way in and one way out. anyhow.... just wanted to vent.

I think they put up that stupid rule so that they can see if your tags are expired... Still a stupid law.

interesting...........

i "back in" or rather pull through every single day for 2 years at cal poly. havent gotten busted yet. but i park in the far away lot, where nobody else parks because its like 3/4 mile away, so they probably dont care. i also drive up the down rows because im parked backwards ;)

At least she didn't ticket you for no front plates! I hate it when the meter maid gets me for no front plates!

i got many of those with my last car. so with the evo i just left the plates on there. with my previous car i got 3 tickets, 3 nights in a row for no front license plate, all at like 2am. you'd figure parking enforcement would at least go to sleep.

It's only in certain lots...or at least it "was" posted in certain lots. I've been out of school for a while now, things might have changed.

WHAT DOES IT MATTER, WHAT DIRECTION YOU PULL IN?

it really doesn't, backing into a space actually makes it easier to get out and less likely to back into something/someone, or at least i would think so. imo, it's just a retarded attempt the city uses to make easy cash. we're all supposed to drop everything we do and look for signs that could possibly call for parking citations.

UNLESS THEY THINK, IT IS EASIER TO BACK IN, STEAL SHIT/ROB A STORE/ETC..., THEN BOLT!
