[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I contested a ticket once.  I took a half day off work to do it, just on principle.  I was ticketed for parking in a loading zone, while I was unloading a rented keg and returning it to the store.  I had a letter from the proprietor and everything.  I left my car for less than 2 minutes.

When I got to the office, I waited all damn day.  Then I got in the room with the official and he said, were you parked there? (Yes, but I was unloading.) But that doesn't apply to you - just commercial trucks. (But the sign doesn't say that. And I was unloading.)  Yes, but it doesn't apply to you.  (How are people supposed to know that?)  I agree it was unclear, but now you know. So don't do it again.

He reduced it by half.  I was furious.  I'd just pay it and move on.  [/quote]

I'm sorry nobody told you not to waste your time.  Of course a loading area is not for you - I thought everybody knew that.  Someone really should have told you before you decided to waste a morning.  [/quote]
