So I went to Manhattan today to visit a friend, and I stop at Starbucks to use the bathroom real quick and pick up something to eat. I paid for street parking and everything too!! When I get outside, I see a ticket!! Not just ANY ticket, a PARKING ticket!!!


Grand total: $115.00!!! WHAT DA FUDGE?!?!



Any cops out in NY that could help me out? I have the ticket, and the parking receipt to prove it.

you have the receipt, just plead not guilty and mail photocopies of the proof...

I hate cops; they are not good at cracking cases or catching thefts but good on giving tickets and eating donuts..Cops are useless in some sense

A meter ticket in NYC is not 120 Rasool. Make sure of the violation on the ticket and post it.

Standing of a non-commercial vehicle in a commercial metered zone.

I think you parked at a spot where you're not supposed to park at certain times of the day.

Basically, you parked legally, but not during the right time of the day.

Yep you were not allowed to park there any day from 10 Am to 4 Pm except sunday so basically you were illegally parked. Sucks man but if you choose to fight it come into the court house and argue and they will usually drop the price down a few bucks maybe down to 90 or a little lower.

He got a printed ticket so its not even a real cop its a traffic cop with his scanner and printer.

True^ Parking Meter Maids! Even if you go to court and get "ticket" lowered, add some "Court Fees" to it. It sux too because u have to take time out of your busy schedule to sit in a court room with a bunch of other *****!!
I'd say pay it, and make sure u learn never to park there again or keep an eye out for street signs. GL if u do fiight it

I was in manhattan yesterday on 32nd street for a job interview. paid 12 bucks for a parking garage for an hr, didnt even wanna bother with street parking for ticketing reasons. cheaper than a ticket.
