| Anyone know? I understand DC is having a hard time tracking these people down so I want to do my part and report. |

| 311. But they are unlikely to dispatch someone unless the car is in violation of some traffic law at the time you made the call. Also DDOT is not exactly speedy when responding. |

We had a car regularly parking illegally and partially blocking our alley exit. Also had thousands of dollars in fines. I think I took a screenshot of the fines and attached it to the 311 report and noted in the comments that I’d been reporting it daily and it continued to park there. I did notice on the tickets it said “tow requested” but it took weeks of daily reports to finally have it booted or towed, can’t remember which. But the car never returned.
FWIW I had to do the same thing for a large pothole in a crosswalk by a school. It kept getting closed as completed and obviously not. Each time I noted it was a repeat of closed ticket XYZ submitted 12:01 and closed 12:02. After three of those it got done right away. If they are reporting the car not there by the time they arrive and it’s still there make a note of that too. |

You can enter the plate number here and it displays the tickets that haven't been paid: https://prodpci.etimspayments.com/pbw/include/dc_parking/input.jsp?ticketType=P |

, DPW would need its staffing increased by a measure of like 1,000 to deal with the issues we have now (all of which are entirely Council-created in the name of "equity.") And even then, it can't ticket/tow cars parked on private property. |

Good one.

No, but DC social media and reddit are full of keyboard cops who go to that website the second they see a car parked one inch past the no-parking sign, or encounter a driver who was mean to them. |

Pay your tickets and don't be an a-hole. |

No, maybe they're a responsible law abiding citizen sick and tired of the lawlessness. Why is a car with thousands in unpaid tickets on the road? You want a repeat of the same story where a car with $10k+ in tickets ends up killing multiple people again? |
