General Disarray Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 So Monday after classes I walk out to see I got a fine for not having my tag displayed $50, it was givin 10 minutes before I got to the car. Today I went to Public Affairs and since i didn't have any other fines he dropped it to a lower violation of $15. I feel a little better now. At least I know I can park infront of a fire hydrant for $15, but I get $50 for forgetting to put my tag up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serge Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 Our school has only street parking (USF), so the city makes loads of money on us. Everything is 2hr parking, lots of street cleaning and small parking spots. There are like a dozen little DPT cars running around to ticket people at any one time.

General Disarray Posted October 31, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 That sucks, we have a 2 level parking garage and an abundance of parking lots. I was just mad about the fact it cost so much more for forgetting your permit one day, but I can park infront of a fire hydrant, and only get fined $15.
