If so, why and did you fight it? Ticket agents are awful, quota making jerks! Agree? Disagree?

I got one today for $115 for double parking when it was opposite side of the street parking. NYC has gone crazy with the dumb ticketing! Ugh!

I've gotten quite a few parking tickets - the street where I live does street sweeping & they'll ticket your car if it's left on the same side that they're cleaning that particular day.
Haven't fought a parking ticket simply because I've seen that I was "wrong" in each instance where I received said ticket. (There was a sign clearly saying "no parking" or whatnot within sight of my car) and I take responsibility for not following those rules.

Parked my car near a church..it was a Saturday afternoon..there were other cars too. Left the car there for about an hour whilst shopping. A couple of weeks later got a fine in the mail from the police..stating that I parked outside a church whilst it was not allowed. Had to pay 100 bucks

Yes... and I was so mad.. I got the ticket while my car was parked in front of my house... There were a couple of other cars in front of me, so I squeezed in at the end, & the ticket was for blocking the sidewalk... And people NEVER use the sidewalk anyways..!! But it was so long ago I don't remember what I did about it.. Probably just paid it..

I got one just last week for parking on the wrong side of the street for street cleaning. $50 too.
I won't fight it because I'm lazy.

I got a ticket for street cleaning. I did not fight it. What could I say?

Parking? No. Speeding-two. Sliding through a stop sign-one. The last one particularly miffed me because the cars ahead of me did it and the cars behind me did it. I did do it, though so there was no use fighting it.

Yes I have. Once> No I didn't fight it. It was in a 2 hour zone and I was there more than 2 hours so I deserved it!

yes, i have gotten one at my college campus. it wasn't even my fault. my younger sister took my car on the weekend and removed my parking permit. i always leave it up. so, i didn't even bother checking it. i get out of class at night and i find the parking ticket. of course, the police station is closed at 10 pm. luckily, my college allows us one free pass each quarter. it's not routine for me. it was my one and only one.
