Driving is a privilege not a right. If you can't play by the rules take public transportation or buy a bicycle.
The amount of excuses in this thread for people breaking laws is ridiculous. Even if they capped fines the same would still complain about them.
But you're a libertarian right? But in spite of that you think it's ok with you for the government to seize your property to coerce payment of a debt (parking tickets) , and you're cool with the government deciding how long you can park your own car in front of your house? That just drips with hypocrisy

When, exactly, did we lose our Right to transport our goods or person by conveyance on the public roadways, and by which amendment? Is riding a bicycle still a right, or is that a privilege too?
