One more cup of coffee

University of Tennessee parking flashback

I saw this story about a woman who, while her car was parked, had the space marked as a handicapped spot, and was then ticketed.

Things like this happened all the time at UT when I was a student there. One time, over a break, they reversed the traffic flow of a one-way street – then ticketed all of the parked cars for having parked the wrong way on a one-way street. Another time, during the middle of a school day, they redesignated part of a commuter parking lot as staff parking, then wrote tickets to all of the student cars parked there for parking in a staff-only area.
