Yup… not at hot as Sex in the City, but still a hot topic nonetheless.
I’ll be the first to go off on a total rant about how rediculously expensive parking in the city is. And there’s very few things I hate more than damn car guards. But I kinda feel like we just have to suck it up cause that’s the just the lay of the land really… Then recently I started spotting quite a few cars looking like this:
It got me wondering. What’s going on here? Are people just fed up and not giving a shit anymore? What are they doing about all the tickets? Does it actually still work out cheaper than paying for the parking? Could be I guess… I’ve certainly had those moments of thinking “aah screw it, what are they gonna do?” as well. But I’ve just been way too chicken to go through with it. These people clearly have ballz of steal… or lots of money.

Not sure it’s cheaper. I got a fine for parking too close to an intersection – R500… But I agree that parking sucks in the city.
Ouch. That’s a pretty steep fine. Then I wonder how much the person in my photo is owing…
