It seems to me that someone should be allowed to park in his/her own driveway or on their own property without getting a ticket. They ALSO pay property taxes and might have mortgages. What do you think should be the limit on the number of cars that can be parked next door? How should this be enforced?

I have 6 driven cars in my household. 5 driven daily and 1 spare. I was parking 4 in my driveway until after some 15 years, I began getting tickets for blocking the sidewalk(new law), even though there was plenty of concrete behind the cars to stay off the grass and out of the street.

So 2 more to park on the street. Well, a Neighborhood Watch lady took offense to my 56 Chevy being parked on “Her Street” and began calling the police, stating it hadn't been moved in 24 hours(the law).

It was getting so ridiculous that I was having to photograph my truck everytime I moved it for evidence.
The police were knocking on the door every day!
I had just instructed the family to start recording evidence of each police visit to see if we could go after a Harrasment offence, when the police came out three times in one day.

That was it! I put the word out to tell that so&so to cut it out!

No more problems, except sometimes we still get the occasional ticket for blocking the sidewalk.

Ain't civilization grand?
