It's easy money since the tourists aren't coming back. Have to special attention there even more than in large cities. I'm also not afraid to walk a few blocks to save some bucks.

Nope. Not better tan anyone. I just like to follow instructions especially when it would cost me money if I don't. There have been several posters on here who have never received a parking ticket. I'm not some special creature like a unicorn or anything.

I have never received a parking ticket.

Speeding tickets on the other hand...I've been good the last 10 years, but let's not discuss before then.

None. No moving violations or accidents either. I have a perfectly clean driving record.

None. But then I live and work in suburbia where parking isn't an issue.

I'm not sure how many parking ticket I have gotten. I've been driving for 37 years. My guess is 10-15 parking tickets. I don't get them very often, especially with where I live now. But 20+ years ago, I lived in a place with parking issues so I got a few tickets.

I have gotten 2 camera tickets for toll violations in the last 3-4 years. I have also gotten 7 tickets for moving violations, mostly for speeding.

Parking tickets aggravate me because I get no enjoyment from the act that led to the ticket. I don't mind speeding tickets so much because I enjoy driving fast (when I can safely) and accept the fact that I'm going to get tagged once in a while.

Well, since everyone is being honest I've gotten thousands. I'm on the ten most wanted in 26 states and have death sentences in five countries. I've got EL Chapo on speed dial in case I need escape and evasion advice.

Ok, not really, but I have scrawled nasty suggestions as to where they could stick their tickets when I mailed the ransom.
