how do you know that they wont dismissed automatically the double parking tickets, in the article it’s states all ticket given out by 66pct.
Please clarify because it’s a נפקא מינא הלכה למעשה
I HAVE THE SAME QUESTION I DOUBLE PARKED SINCE I THOUGHT ALTERNATE SIDE PARKING WAS IN AFFECT…..AND I GOT A TICKET WHICH AS WE ALL NO YOU DON’T GET TICKETED FOR DOUBLE PARKING IN BP………
They’ll dismiss the tickets for street cleaning rules. Double parking is a separate issue, as far as the department is concerned. They claim it’s illegal in the first place, although officers are supposed to overlook it under certain conditions when there’s alternate side parking.
While it won’t be dismissed automatically, you can try to have it dismissed based on the fact that you were doing your civic duty of allowing the streets to be cleaned, or something like that.
Good luck!
does anyone know if double parking tickets for that day we’re also dismissed?
if yes please reply
