Thank you. Thank you. Our block has already improved (well, psychosematically anyway, since we're feeling more proactive and involved).
Walking around a parked car? Ridiculous! How on earth could a ped do that? Not in my city! Fight for injustice!
Thanks, Anonymous. We will.
F##k the parking cops! My neighbor has a grudge against me. My wife is a paraplegic, and I have to extend my bumper out from my driveway to unload her and CARRY her up the stairs to my house. This particular day, she messed herself while I was carrying her up the stairs. I had to clean her and myself up, and di not get back out right away to pull my truck in,
Sure enough the lady who hates me called parking control (This lady baby sits several parking officers children and is friends with them)
and 26 minutes later I had a ticket.
Oh and by the way I measured it, and my bumper was a HUGE ten inches onto the sidewalk. These people should all rot in hell, and all thier children should become quadraplegics so they know the s##t
I have to endure.
F*ck all parking cops they should all be f*ckin killed
Will you have my incoming caller id recorded even i dont have to give out my name and phone number if i report driveway blocking?
Hi there! Nice post! Please tell us when I will see a follow up! www.csacservices.com
I'm having this issue within my HOA. They believe that they are 1) Above the law and 2) That City, State and Federal law does not apply to them. They also are inhuman and do not believe that they need to do anything to assist the disabled.
Barden vs. Sacramento Lawsuit ruled that sidewalks are facilities and that ADA applies! CVC 22500 (f)
I am having the same problem in my association. They are ticketing cars for parking on the sidewalk. My neighbor got one. I guess we will have to abide by the law and get rid of all the junk in my garage and park my car in the garage. Casey Gwynn, who was the city attorney back in 1997, issued a memo that reiterated what the law says. Basically that you cannot park on a sidewalk, even if it is private property. He's a smart guy but most people don't give a damn about others. They won't move their cars unless they are forced to do so.
Interesting thoughts.
