depends where you parked, if it's underground parking like scotiabank theatre. i've never seen a tow truck down there before, only because the lot is too small.

but it doesn't affect your credit rating, so fuck it. buy a round of beers or something instead.

as a owner of the car, u are responsible for it. Same as if a camera click u running a red light.. u get the ticket in mail..

here's what u do.
wait until they send you another ticket. then complain that u never saw the first one.
and u pay ticket if they send u a copy.
ughhh...wouldnt spend an extra $18 bux on a different plate saves a lot more hassel?

Yeah, you can turn off all avatars in your control panel. But not individual ones, unless you set that person on ignore I guess...

I parked at metrotown and they gave me a ticket 2 weeks ago. It was by Diamond Parking. $57.75 if paid within 10 days and $73.50 if paid after 10 days. I paid it but it was a lot just to park at metro. Is it a good idea if I ignored it?

Isn't metrotown parking free? Plus, it doesn't matter if it was a good idea or not now anyways since you already paid

rule of thumb, ignore private parking companies, never ignore tix from city.

Last time I got harassed by impark it was some guy from india and I kept arguing I don't know what hes talking about and I said would you like some curry

OMFG LMFAO....

Anyway, I park on an impark lot 4 days a week. I get a parking ticket like 2-4 times a month. This has been happening for the last 2-3 years. I never pay. I've never been towed. Is this a cool story bro?

They have a record of your car description and your license plate. Do they secretely record your VIN as well?
The people in this thread said they have been called and harassed. So I guess they can get your info.

they wouldn't be able to prove anything in court, especially if you changed the plate

really, people need to stop getting their knickers in a twist over a $50 ticket

i had a $450 ticket i just got out of with some BRILLIANT court play - that was fun - at NO time did i think i could lose it, and i didn't, was a really fun thing to do... but over $50, change your plate and call it a day & stop worrying about it

I always wonder. Say you get 50 tickets from Impark. You changed your license plate. Some other sorry soul take your plate. Would he get harassed/towed by Impark?

Oh, something else I forgot to mention. If your car is leased, call Impark and pay that ticket. The leasing company WILL pay the tix and ask you to re-imburse them. There's not a way out of this. Better pay now than to get dinged mroe with late payment

they don't recycle plates very quickly at all, if at all - also plate + car won't equal what impark has, so a person taking your plate wouldn't get dinged - so this is a non-issue

re: leased cars... i can't speak to that, i'd check out your contract - i wouldn't have thought the leasing company would automatically pay these fines

that's because brian jessel has something up his arse... i'd read my contract carefully - i'd NEVER sign anything that authorizes a third party to pay tickets like that, you haven't been found guilty of anything so why should they just pay up (from a very fundamental legal stand point, this goes against everything i believe in teh legal system, something i've been using a lot to my advantage recently)

when they call you to harass you, you could just fuck with them.

Maybe start talking about the canucks or other random topics?
