    Legal? Parking enforcement ticketing inside LAX parking garage??

    I got $25 no front plate ticket while out of town.. but there was no ticket under my windshield wiper. Just got notice in the mail today.

    Monday 3:57pm. I was out til Wednesday.. as I was leaving, strangely, the cashier that charged me a whopping $94 to park in the long-term garage for a whole 3 days walked out to look at my front plate (as if she noticed it was missing) then exits her booth and walks to the back and made note of my plate writing it down. WTF? I thought nothing of it til now.

    They working with the cops?? Making commissions? .. wtf.

    It's an airport, they are extra anal. She probably had someone run your plates and after they realized you weren't a terrorist decided to give you some anal sausage anyway.

            Just checking to see if you were a terrorist.... you see terrorists don't check their mail. Clearly, you passed the test.. congrats, your not a terrorist! Now pay the fine.

              Pay it, fix it and dont try to understand it. I flipped off and cursed out a meter maid who told me to move my car. I thought that i told him.


              2 months later i got a parking in a handicapped space ticket in the mail for $350. And there was no arguing it. So who really showed who? Now I treat meter maids with respect now.lol

                Cities have been doing that for while. They troll the parking lots looking for people to ticket.

                I was parked in O'hare long term and got back from California, was wearing shorts and it was about 5 degrees and snowing. When I got to my car it had a boot on it for 4 parking tickets. Of course, they only take cash, so I had to walk to a hotel about a mile away to use the ATM.

                  Be ultra glad it was not a tow able offense. Many parking lots have contracts with tow companies and Oh Boy! do they patrol those suckers. Zero reason with the drivers either. If they have you nailed, truck behind you - even if not hooked up you are fucked. At very best they will let you pay an instant fee to not tow you if your lucky.

                  Saw someone towed while a person was in the passenger seat. Well they hooked it up and were just waiting to lift it, as they will not tow with someone inside. Approximately 5 minutes latter the driver came out screaming and hollering. To bad, so sad. They were both in a handicapped space with no permit "and" using the parking lot for a business across the street despite what the warning signs say.
                  Willing to bet that was the most expensive pizza that couple ever bought.

                        I think a better question would be, how long have you lived here that you have not figured out that plates are mandatory on the front and back . . . no matter how cool you think your car is . . .

                                  Not all states require front plates, so Chrysler has an adapter that is installed to accommodate those states that do.

                                  If your plate had been ripped off by a tow truck days ago, instead of years ago I might have some sympathy . . . as would the judge.

                                    You do not have to be particularly intelligent to notice that every car in the state has front and rear license plates.

                                      did you remove your plate? if so, then pay the fine and stfu

                                      if not, then that fucking sucks. someone did that to me once in Vegas in a parking lot. Didnt notice that my plate was missing until I got back and pulled over outside of LA

                                        fyi, in l.a., don't drive through a crosswalk when there's someone in it, even if they've walked past you and are on the other side, just a step or 2 from the curb. i've seen the police pull over quite a few cars for that when it was clear the pedestrians were out of the way.

                                            He parked in the terminal, instead of a true long term parking lot that would have been $5/day.

                                              That's what I'm saying! It's just so impressive that you are always right on.

Zero reason with the drivers either. If they have you nailed, truck behind you - even if not hooked up you are fucked. At very best they will let you pay an instant fee to not tow you if your lucky.

                                                      Saw someone towed while a person was in the passenger seat. Well they hooked it up and were just waiting to lift it, as they will not tow with someone inside. Approximately 5 minutes latter the driver came out screaming and hollering. To bad, so sad. They were both in a handicapped space with no permit "and" using the parking lot for a business across the street despite what the warning signs say.
                                                      Willing to bet that was the most expensive pizza that couple ever bought.
                                                      I stopped a guy from towing my car once. It was 2am in an apartment used mostly by students at Sacramento State University, there was nobody parking in pretty much the entire parking lot - except for me. But I didn't have a permit. He had the cable hooked up to my axle when I found him, and I told him to stop... he said "not until you pay me $180." I said "Not gonna pay you, and you're not taking the car either".

                                                      Got him to disconnect it for $80. Fuck that guy. I know that money went straight into his pocket, too.

                                                        Saved you $100. Would not complain too loudly.

                                                          I don't think there's very much legitimacy going on with a lot of these towing operations. Most of them seem as shady as it gets.

                                                            I got a parking ticket for $60.00 at Ontario Airport in Cali while I was at internext this summer when someone pulled my registrtation tag sticker from my car. The cop didn't even pull my plates to check if my tags were expired per the DMV. I got it signed off but I still had to go through the hassle.



                                                            I feel you!

If your car is still sitting there 5 minutes after the clearway period starts (usually 3-4pm) it will have a flatbed tow truck in front of it in no time. Sucks if you get caught, but a blocked clearway lane DOES cause serious issues with traffic flow.

Then you come in and the meter maid says you did it and you say you didnt and you loose and wasted 2 full days that i could have been shooting. Its not about what you say, its about what you can prove. Meter maids carry serious weight in court.


                                                                                  And if you get pissed and loose it in court, you will end up in jail for contempt. Nobody wins in LA against the parking enforcement.

                                                                                    Once your hooked, your paying something.

I would either disconnected the cable and drove off, get into the vehicle or stand between the tow truck and my vehicle. I'm not paying the guy a fucking dime for a service I didn't request.
                                                                                    You would of ended up either physically stopped from doing it, or arrested. Odds are both. They do have the law on their side.
