parking ticket

[s0z3]

i just got a parking ticket what should i do

Just pay the fine. Parking tickets are not all that bad compared to moving traffic violations. I dont think it will exceed $50...depends where you are though.

Yeah, just pay the fine. The fine will increase once its overdue, and you will not be able to renewal the registration until the fine is paid.

A little FYI:
Did you know that your car is not considered to be "parked" if it is running in park position? The car is not technically parked until the ignition is turned off. If you get a parking ticket, always send a letter to the county courthouse or at least go and explain your case to the magistrate. You just never know. The worst thing that could happen is that you will have to pay the fine.

in most places it's illegal to leave a running car unattended, so unless you want to convince them that you were in the car while the ticket was being stuck under your wiper, don't bother.
