It doesnt matter which side its on as long as it if face side up. With the photo evidence there is no ticket on the drivers side. But also there is no picture of the passenger side ( the side the ticket was on).

Now lets say for example the ticket was unreadable i.e: upside down. Then fine thats my fault, take a picture and show me
Another example, lets say I didnt even put a ticket on the dash, fair enough. Take a picture of bothsides proving there is no ticket.

But when you take a picture of just one side that gives me the benifit of the doubt, and the probablility that the ticket is on the other side. With no evidence proving it wasnt on the other side how can one determine who is wrong or right? In this case I think I should have gotten re-embursed.

That being said its sort of a lack of evidence for them, and it provides them with a weaker case if someone were to dispute it, like I did.

In the end they always win, I hate the parking authority.

Pay parking angst is part of life in Victoria. Right up there with Hipster hate and Fixed-gear cyclist rage.

In regards to Adam's initial question, sounds like she had some tickets, did she lend her car to anybody for like a week? Hell, even a day in Vic can yield numerous tickets. Said hypothetical friend would have to be a real asshole though.

I have a ticket in front of me. All it says is "PLACE FACE UP ON DASH". It does not say anything about what side of the dash on the front or back of the ticket.

i dunno how the boot works, but i think if i get booted ill just take the tire off and use my spare then find a way to take off the boot at home, then go to the robbins office and install it on one of the employees vehicles

atleast that would be fun to do, i dunno if i actually would

it not robins parking that puts the boot on, its some other company, and they would still charge you up the ass for the boot, so its still a loose loose situation
