Wrong Parking Ticket on Miami Beach..
I got a parking ticket of the most stupid way in this world. Today 07/22/10 got a parking ticked citation due on 07/07/10. It has more than one month ago and I even didn't know it.!!!


I was on Miami Beach on 06/07/2010 trying to put my debit and credit card in the machine on 3 st with Ocean dr, but it wasn't working so the agent helped with that when he saw me. The machine after several attempts didn't work so I had to put some bills in there, and the man helped me with this task because he knew how this worked better than me; however, when I came back to my car to put the bought ticked I found a parking citation in my windshield, so I run after the man who was already in the corner and told him that the car he had just ticked was mine so he smiled and apologized, so he told me to not take account my ticket.

What can I do? I am pretty sure that the man who emerged this ticket remember this case if he is honest enough of course.
Should I have to pay this anyway?

Does it exists any website where I can complain about it? Can I fight this? Did anyone live the same situation?

I honestly am scared to go to Miami Beach again after this issue.

Go to court and fight it, most likely the judge will not make you pay it.

I agree with Doggie.

It's a shame the city always has a hand in your pocket for parking. Many other cities are free for at least 2 hours, including spots on main drags.

Well how much is the ticket? If it worth the trip to court to fight it go ahead. But if its not much $25 or something maybe its not worth the trip if your working etc..

I think you need to make sure you don't have anything out on you right now...don't want to get pulled over for something else and be in more trouble due to administrative error.
