    how is it that they can claim you have insufficient evidence when they are the ones that need the evidence to fine you?

    This what happens when you pay a 3rd party to run the photo camera and the ticket processing and they get a 60/40 split.

    If you really want investigate this figure out when everyone gave up their rights to either a civil or criminal trial. There is no judge or jury involved in these tickets. When did I sign away my rights to a fair trial?

    If the officer made the mistake, and the officer had to pay the ticket, I bet things would change.

    Sometimes, it takes the news crews to help innocent people for things to change.

    My only question is, why would you pay a ticket on a road your tax dollars built? If the city claims ownership of a public road built with public funds ie “tax dollars”, that is legally misappropriation of public funds and theft.

    At 2:25, rep says "the city has an obligation to step in and be fair about it" ....course, that doesn't mean we actually will. Nope, not gonna do it. Those tickets are just making us too much money! Ain't government sanctioned extortion beautifull?

    By purchasing a period of parking, you have entered into a contract with the City to park in that location for a period of time. By the D.C. officials issuing the parking tickets prior to the expiry or passing of the time on your device, they are in breach of contract, and are liable to be sued for said breach of contract.
    A mirror of this happened in Melbourne, Australia, and the local council that was in charge of the parking, the officer wrote a ticket, despite the fact that there was still 12 minutes or so before the vehicle was illegally parked. The ticket that was purchased by the motorist was properly displayed on the front left hand side of the windscreen and was visible from the footpath.
    As this is happening way too often, it may be a suggestion to look at filing a class formal complaint with the Attorney General, and take all the evidence in and deliver to his / her office and claiming fraud / extortion by the Government agency. The law is meant to be there for the benefit of all, to be enforced fairly and equally, without fear or favour.

    You have to pay the ticket, pay $10 for the appeal, and then denied an appeal because you paid the ticket.

    Why is mobile park a substitute of BMW (EU) running parking in the US?

    To the DMV in the District of Columbia: You should NEVER ticket innocent people who NEVER did anything you are falsely accusing them of. You should only ticket those who do what you falsely accuse INNOCENT people of.

    @paulwilliams73 6 лет назад +1

    That HAS to be a scam,
    pay ticket AND pay for appeal that is only going to be denied because you payed
    Evidence of payment is insufficient evidence

    That's because they tie their budget to your parking ticket..

  • @mjallen1308

    How about also addressing when you provide evidence and they say it's not evidence and then also charge you $10 to tell you that on top of the ticket THEY say you're still responsible for. No one should have to make this many complaints before someone in legislation steps in but I guess that $200 mil per year is just too lucrative to let go.

    denied an appeal because you paid the ticket when stated that one can appeal so long as they pay the ticket PLUS $10 S C A M ! ! ! lawsuit

      Nope don't even. Corruption can happen anywhere. A small town in Alabama tried to use civil forfeiture laws to make money but got caught.
