The jeep was in our back lot where the tow truck couldn't fit so the tow truck driver decided to drive it over to his truck, we told him it didn't have any brakes and was unsafe to drive. We have no idea what he was thinking trying to drive in up the ramp. It broke the natural gas meter off and a large amount of natural gas leaked out. Fortunately, no one was hurt, the fire department and police came."

Maybe the driver's name is Ray. Or is it not a Chevy, or a Silverado? All late 90s/early 2000s pickup trucks look the same to me.

Not a Silverado, technically speaking. Silverado was just a trim level available on the C/K trucks; it didn't become an actual model designation until the 1999 model year (that one is an 88-98, and it looks like a C1500). Silverado was the top of the line trim on that generation C/K. And that may be the Silverado trim (extended cab, alloy wheels, and the tailgate all say it is), but it's not a Chevy Silverado. I couldn't begin to guess at the year without seeing the interior or front clip, they didn't change them much at all over the years except for the interior. Kind of like Ranger used to be a trim level on the Ford F series trucks until the Ranger came along as its own model, except in Ford's case, the Ranger was a minitruck, instead of just flat out replacing the existing truck (speaking from experience.. my first vehicle was a 1980 Ford F-150 Ranger XLT - basically added a digital clock, temp gauge, am/fm/cassette [!!!! big deal for 1980], carpet, cloth + vinyl bench, and mine was optioned with dual fuel tanks). To contribute, spotted this gem today.

Don't they issue tickets for those where you are?

I've been pulled over once for expired tags. Also yes parking enforcement in Chicago will absolutely ticket you for any of that poo poo and it's $60 a pop.

I rented a Fiat 124 off Turo in LA a while back and goofed up and parked in a loading/unloading zone overnight. (It was late, I didn't see the painted curb, and it was the only opening I found within five blocks of my Airbnb, etc.) Anyway, I paid for the parking ticket, but they also ticketed the car for no front plate. I'm certain that you'd never get pulled over for no front plate in LA, but you could absolutely get a fixit ticket for it in the event of getting pulled over, or by a meter reader, etc.

That's just rich people logic. $400 fine for parking in the handicapped spot without a tag They only catch me one time in ten That's only $40 to park right at the front of the store every time, and I wouldn't even stop walking to pick up 40 bucks in the street. smashing deal

Reminds me of the logic of some of the folks when I was in college. The university used to charge some absurd amount of money for a semester parking pass on campus. The fee for getting caught parking without one was half that. The college parking was so crowded people would miss class if they couldn't find a spot somewhere. So the economy became conducive to people rolling the dice and parking without passes when they found a spot and not moving the whole day. Because of the volume of traffic in and out, campus police never caught anyone more than once.

When I was in undergrad, the campus parking pass was expensive, and I forget what the per incident parking ticket was, maybe $50? But they'd hold your diploma if you had unpaid parking tickets. The city ticket fee was $5 at the time. That changed overnight when they realized students were treating that as a per day parking fee because it was cheaper!

They had two sets of lots, paved, in front of the school, and gravel, a bit further away. I always got a pass for the gravel lots, but my last semester I didn't bother. Just parked in the "other" paved lot where hardly anyone parked and got maybe 3 tickets the whole time. Cost of tickets 15 bucks each. Cost of a pass for the cheap, gravel lots 125 bucks. More money to spend at the school pub.

The state made you get registered every year but didn't mandate any actual vehicle inspections. it ended up being that a ticket for an expired registration was less than a tenth of the cost of the registration. so I just never registered my car for 5 years straight and I end up getting only about three tickets.
