i got the same handicap parking ticket a few years ago here in markham when i went to the post office. same $300 fine too.

i took the ticket to the Town Of Markham to pay it and the girl decided to drop it to $150. i dunno what compelled her to do it but i wanted to take her out for dinner afterwards.

for hours? he shouldnt be in that parking spot at all, period. it has nothing to do with a time frame. the $300 fine just goes to show that they take handicap parking infractions seriously. stop thinking like a dumb gino. lol.

dont park in the handicap spot if you cant afford it. you are accountable for whatever fine they decide to slap on you whether it is $5 or $10,000.

imagine a murderer saying in court "i am accountable for first degree murder but im not accountable for life in prison." fuck that! if you do the crime then you do the time.

It seems if you own up to your actions, sometimes people are willing to let you off the hook a little bit.

I parked on a street in Toronto where you couldn't park past 10pm or something. I totally didn't even realize it b/c when I went to pay for a meter thing it said you only have to pay until 10pm. I failed to see the sign that said you can't park there without a residential permit after 10pm though.

I got a ticket at 11pm and then another one at 12:05am. I was so annoyed, but I screwed up b/c the sign was there. The parking ticket place was really nice though and took one of the tickets away b/c they thought it was a bit unfair I guess.

the moral of the story is that its always a safer bet to park in the fire route ( pull up right in front of the store) ... its only a 100$ doller ticket

They cancelled the second ticket because they're not allowed to issue more than one for the same infraction. So when you get a parking ticket, you can leave your car there for as much as 24 hours without the risk of being nailed again.

When parking tickets were $20, I would just park illegally and leave the car there all day, it ended up being cheaper than actually paying for parking.

I aint payin this shit. If you knew how much they ream me for income tax you'd understand...

I wanna be able to live like a normal person.
