Even Elected Officials Are Not Immune...
Spotted parked at an (expired) meter on a downtown street this afternoon:
A red Ford Taurus wagon with Missouri license plate "R-65"...
...it had a parking ticket under its left windshield wiper.
This of course would be the vehicle of one State Representative Fred Kratky.
;-)
That is a low blow Joe.
ReplyDeleteEveryone lets the meter expire.
This is one area where smart cards would be useful.
Sure, that's true -- I was just impressed to see that a vehicle obviously belonging to an elected official got ticketed!
ReplyDeleteNo preferential treatment is allotted by the City Treasurer's office, right? That's what it suggests to me.
OTOH, I wonder if vehicles with City license plates ever get ticketed? If so, I've never seen it happen; and I've seen plenty that were improperly parked.
Maybe the standard is different for state officials?
