You should dispute the ticket by sending an online appeal to the ticket. You should hear back from them in several days to a few weeks, with their usual email reply of "we're busy with all our cases, and would like to give you a discounted price if you choose to accept it, or we can review your case, but if you lose you will pay the full price." Since it seems that it is hard to dispute your situation, you may as well take whatever discount they give you.
Never pay any NYC parking tickets. Not only is it illegal but you can then be considered contributing to a criminal conspiracy. Besides. if you are from NJ you have diplomatic immunity.
U CAN TRY TO DO A REDUCTION ON THE TICKET BUT U HAVE TO PAY OTHERWISE IF U DRIVE IN NYC AND THEY RUN UR PLATES THEY WILL ARREST U AND TAKE UR CAR AWAY PLUS THE IMPOUND IS GONNA COST U MORE , FOR U TO HAVE A EXAMPLE I GOT 2 PARKING TICKETS FOR METTER AT THE SAME DAY ONE AT 7:03am AND ANOTHER AT 7:11am THIS MEANS THAT THE THIEF DID EVEN MOVE, TO WRITE ME ANOTHER TICKET IS THAT CORRECT ?. WE WORK HARD TO MAKE A LIVING, WE DON’T DRIVE AROUND THE CITY GIVING TICKETS IN VALUES OF $125.00 EACH ONE. WE HAVE TO WAKE UP AND STOP THOSE THIEFS , IN CONTRIES LIKE FRANCE, ENGLAND, SPAIN THEY FIGHT BACK, IN FRANCE THEY INSTALL RADAR ALL OVER THE PLACE AND THE PEOPLE BRAKE THEM , IN ENGLAND PEOPLE HAS VOICE THEY DON’T LET CITIES MAKE MILLIONS IN PARKING REVENUES LIKE IN NYC . WE HAVE START TO DO SOMETHING BRAKE THE METTERS, CAMERAS, RADARS, WAKE UP PEOPLE FROM NYC

IMO, this is excellent advice. No scofflaw EVER gets away with it. Get the dang thing over with and then, after you follow Jelly's advice, check out RobRiguez's solution to prevent future tickets.
So I've got a ton of parking tickets before all in new jersey, usually I just pay them. I got one in Manhattan [parking garage to metmuseum was blocked off] so I parked near a bus stop half my car was over the paint and i got a 125 dollar ticket. I'm not gonna fight it, but what will happend if I don't pay it?

Wow! I'm not sure what to make of this. You admit to getting a ton of parking tickets, that you knew what you were doing when you parked illegally, and then you complain that the states are money hungry, like that is the reason you were ticketed.
Anyway, who is not money hungry? Certainly not my gas company, my electric company or my lawn guy, but there's nothing illegal that I do that I can blame on them.

hey I didn't ask for your goofy opinion which btw I think is a load of bull
It's all true, you just don't want to hear it. You brag about getting loads of tickets, like it's a badge of honor, and then you looked to blame the city for wanting to collect.
I didn't give an opinion, in fact, I said I didn't know what to make of this. I just stated what you said, and that says it all.

This is my first ticket in the city, all my others were from n.j. and yahhh these cities do try to create revenue off of tickets, that's why a million people are pissed and not bending over graciously to pay them. People like u lick ass and accept everything making it harder for the rest of us.
Gee, you must really be pissed off hearing the truth, that you would resort to that kind of reply. I'm usually much nicer, but for you I'll respond in kind.
It appears that YOU are the one bending over taking it in the rear because you are getting "tons" of tickets as you admit, and continue to pay the fines for them. You seem to enjoy not obeying parking regulations, getting tickets, paying them, then blaming the city or town for collecting.
All I can say is "THANKS". It's the undisciplined motorist like you paying all those tickets that help pay for the services that my town provides me and the various other users of this forum, so we can pay less.

THANKS SO MUCH.
I started a topic here asking what happends if I don't pay an out of state ticket, where do u come from resurrecting an old topic saying something that doesn't answer the original question. What are you an online cop? Are u offended that people don't want to pay tickets? U really think that people who pay fines are paying for your services? I heard that the more fines are paid, the higher the debt goes and more general people are expected to pay, is that to far fetched?
