Tips from your NYC Parking Ticket that will save you Money

An NYC parking ticket tale from the eyes of a parking ticket

Did you know that parking tickets delivered more than $600M in revenue for NYC in 2009? Not bad for a piece of paper in these uncertain economic times. I’m recession proof. I can’t take all the credit. We couldn’t do it without help from all the confusing parking rules, and some overzealous parking ticket warriors. Kudos to all. We’re a team.

It’s raining today, cold and windy

Great for parking tickets. When my special member of the NYC driving public returns, he/she won’t be able to make out any of the information on my face.

She’ll curse, grab me, squeeze me into a ball, and toss me in the back seat. I’m happy to take one for the team. I’ll be a parking ticket hero. Here’s why:

• There’s plenty of information on the front of a parking ticket that can help a driver beat me. If they can’t read me, they’ll ignore me. Big mistake. For example, if a date, time, place of occurrence, make, model or license plate number is wrong, I lose. If I’m illegible, I lose
• When I’m tossed in the back seat, my special member of the driving public will probably forget about me. Penalties will be assessed.  More money for the “good guys”
• Mr. or Ms. driving public probably doesn’t realize you can get a picture of my face from the New York City Department of Finance. I’m a winner, again

Here comes John Q. Member of the NYC driving public. He looks like a truck driver. He finished making a delivery in his commercial vehicle. This is really good for me unless some wise guy tells him that he can beat me with a work order. Ah, he’ll probably lose the ticket or the work order. This is a piece of cake.

We will never win the hearts and minds of the NYC driving public. But, who cares. Show me the money…and the driving public always does.
