Municipal parking laws are typically recommended by city staff (often in consultation with public citizens) - then voted on by (elected) city councillors/aldermen...that come from all walks of life...not just lawyers.

Signage (at least in our city) is not made overly complex intentionally since parking tickets can still be challenged in municipal/provincial court. The administrative costs (for the city) to attend court challenges is significant enough incentive to keep parking signage as simplified and easy-to-understand to the general public as possible.

There's no grand conspiracy to 'control the masses' with roadside parking signage. To even imply that is lunacy...ignorance of the facts at best.

This from a 10-year municipal by-law enforcement supervisor.
