[quote=Anonymous]I've posted a couple responses already.  But I took a beat and thought I might offer something more helpful-

OP, I get that this is frustrating.  It is a real headache to deal with.  You have to track down what happened, which will likely mean a bunch of time corresponding with this "random town."  That is annoying.  Some venting would be warranted.

But I do suggest you take a little ownership here, rather than questioning the legality of......enforcing public safety laws.  Many of the details you include are really not relevant.  You DID do something illegal by parking in front of the hydrant.  You (most likely) DID do something illegal to incur the ticket and then again by not responding to it.  Rain, the need for bagels, and the fact that you were outside NYC is irrelevant.

You say this is the type of thing that "makes life not actually work."  But what would REALLY not make life work is if everybody ignored tickets and blocked hydrants when it is more convenient for them.[/quote]
