I woke up this morning and had a parking ticket on my car for parking within 5m to a fire hydrant. On the ticket, it reads that the distance was measured at 3.0m
I'm pretty sure I was parked further away than that, but i didn't have time to measure and take pictures this morning.
So I have a few questions, i'm hoping someone can help me out.
Do the parking guys actually get out of their cars with a tape measure to measure the distance? and do they take pictures? 3.0m sounds like it's approximated.
Is the 5m measured from your car to a point on the curb that is perpendicular to the hydrant? or is it measured to the actual hydrant?
If I go back tonight and take pictures where I was parked, can I use that as evidence to fight the ticket? or am i screwed cause i didn't have time this morning?
If I want to fight this, where can I do so?
