Tickets at Horner Rd lot this AM!

Exactly, I have also managed to park in a legal spot after 8 AM in the past, even if that meant I had to walk all the way from Telegraph Rd's lot up the hill to the CC line. On the hectic days where I could not find a spot I drove over to Potomac Mills (where I use exclusively now) and parked there. Technically legal or not, it's still wrong and those of you who do it know it.

agree.

They ticket once every couple of weeks at the 234 lot and i have NO sympathy. These people are often almost blocking exits. If you can't get there early enough to park, TOO BAD. find another lot or another way to get to work.

I wish they'd start towing to be honest.

If you snooze, you lose!

I have seen cars that are parked on Telegraph Road get tickets. What makes you any more special that you think you should be allowed to park on the side of the road and not get a ticket!!!! Potomac Mills was wide open this morning and had a long line of cars waiting for riders. My suggestion to all of those who are parking illegally -- GO TO POTOMAC MILLS, TACKETS, 123 and quit complaining if you get a ticket. You take the risk by parking illegally, don't complain when you get a ticket.[:(!]

yes, people KNOW that they aren't parking legally, yet bitch and moan when they get a ticket.

It's just like the self-righteous types here claim the right to go 85-95 miles an hour on the road.

People who think the rules don't apply to them.

Then whine about the consequences, or come up with some lame-o excuse. It's an epidemic in society

The law is the law! READ IT! before you start spouting out about things you obviously know nothing about!

Parking

When parking on a public road, move as far from traffic as possible. If you park on a road-side shoulder, pull as far on to it as possible. If you park next to a curb, pull close to it. You may not park more than one foot from the curb. Always park on the right side of the roadway unless it is a oneway street. Parking on hills

When parking on a hill with a curb, turn the front wheels to prevent your vehicle from rolling into the street.
When parking on a hill, turn the front wheels of your vehicle to prevent it from rolling into the street.
Refer to illustrations A and B. If there is no curb, turn the front wheels so that if the vehicle rolls, the rear of the
vehicle will roll away from traffic. Refer to illustrations C and D.

You may not park:

beside another parked vehicle (double parking); on crosswalks or sidewalks; in front of driveways; within areas where parking is prohibited by curbs painted yellow or No Parking signs; in a parking space reserved for disabled persons; on the hard surface of a road when no curb is present; within 15 feet of a fire hydrant;
within 20 feet of an intersection; within 15 feet of the entrance to a fire, ambulance or rescue squad station; within 500 feet of where fire trucks or equipment are stopped answering an alarm; within 50 feet of a railroad crossing; or, in such a way that you block or create a hazard for other vehicles in a designated traffic lane.
