He said you're the first today and I noted that is why there are so many open places and he laughed and said 25 tickets so far! Starting fine is $250 and in Chula Vista the judges usually make it $500 as the 250 is just a starter.


First time I have ever been asked about it!

That's spectacular. I know that when I lived in Tampa, I always heard that the ticket for parking in a handicapped spot if you weren't handicapped was $500. I support that too.
