Sorry, to come off bitter.
The west/southwest is beautiful and great. NOVA was the source of my problems. Moved there for school, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed straight from the country.
Arlington county has this cute little car registration program—which, I assumed (that word) applied to parking on public streets.
Anyway—police sneak into my apartment buildings parking lot, ID every non-compliant vehicle, and wait for people to drive to school/work ticketing them as they leave their garage!
Being an idiot, I tried to protest on principle and you can guess the rest...
I think that ‘NOVA mindset’ was behind the ridiculous ticket law a couple of years back—
credit to the citizens for turning it back!
Not a problem. Joe McCain was not the first to refer to Arlington and Alexandria as communist territory.
I’m familiar with the car registration. We lived in Arlington for 8 years. One year, just after New Years I got a ticket on like January 3. The car had not been moved since Christmas. And the ticketing officer had to clean snow off of my car to check the sticker.
