That you can get a $40 parking ticket at 6:15p, Friday night, in Bear Branch, for parking on the wrong side of the road? WTF? Seriously? I am new here and had tree workers at my property (also parked on the wrong side) ... Can I fight this? I'm so dumbfounded.... 4951

I honestly had no clue - in my last town , I lived 25 miles north of a major city, and there was no such thing as Ticketing in the 'burbs. I'm so caught off-guard and ticked about this..... 4951

yep my sons gf got one tonight, her van was flooded out , stalled and we were told by insurance not to move until they saw it.  She walked back only to find a ticket on the windshield.They also came by and scanned my sons truck thats been parked on the correct side of the street, legally.  Watched as he ran the plates then left.  Truck is legal, runs just waiting on parts so we can sell it.  And this my friends is what our taxes pay for, not protection but policing the neighborhoods with parking violations. 4951

We got a "parked on the wrong side of the road" ticket once. The police said that the ticket is given because one has to drive the wrong way down the road to get to the other side to park. You might only have to drive the wrong way for 5 feet but you're driving the wrong way. This was their explanation for the ticket. It seemed petty but we paid it and went on with our lives.  4951

I got one for my car being parked facing the wrong way after it quit running and that's where tow driver put it. I decided against paying the fine and went to the court hearing or whatever you call it and the cop who wrote the ticket didnt show so it got dismissed. 4951

@angiekaye: Don't want a ticket -� don't illegally park then whine about it when caught.
 
@Stealth83:
 
I don't think you're being snarky to me, but...It honestly NEVER occurred to me that I was doing something wrong! And I'm still shocked - maybe more so that a city worker was working after 5p on a Friday night. Emoticon
 
The kicker, too, is that the tree guys were parked facing the wrong direction in front of my house. The guy didn't ticket them!!! 4951

Somebody was moaning on here last week about a ticket for nose-in parking on a cul-de-sac. Easy money for the city, might be trying to fill the coffers. 4951

@angiekaye: a law is a law.  We pay to enforce the laws equally.Would you want someone who violates a law let go because they live in one part of the city yet in another part it is enforced?Where is the equality there.Don't want a ticket -  don't illegally park then whine about it when caught.
 
@Stealth83: excuse me? But we were wading thru 6 foot of water trying to get her out of it!  We pushed it against the curb as close as we could and then went back to get the tow truck.  The insurance told her father to leave it as is so they could inspect what happened.If you dont know what happened please dont speak.

Contact the city of Houston,, they are running out of money, and are looking for new revenue. Guess where they found it. 4951
