Huh. I was expecting the comments to be a little more of the Fuck Cars crowd.
In my city there was a whole kerfuffle because people were fined for parking in their own driveway due to it not actually being a driveway, as there was no garage, despite having a curb cut. It sounds like this sort of thing has been changed under the new mayor.
I'm one of those Fuck Cars people but bankrupting single moms parked on their own property is not fixing anything. In the USA we place impossible burdens on individuals and then blame them for our systemic problems.
As they say, it costs a lot to be poor.
