Loading Zone ticket question
Posted on 1/1/14 at 9:18 am

I work downtown so every now and then if I'm bringing some heavy stuff up to my office I will park in the loading zone, make one trip upstairs and then come back down and move my car. This past week I actually left the car running with the flashers on and couldn't have been more than 5 minutes and I got a ticket. Nola tickets are really cheap ($20) so it's not a big deal but I was just wondering how to avoid this in the future. Is it illegal at all times to park in a loading zone? I thought this was what they are there for but maybe I'm just being naive.

Well you were unloading while parked in the loading zone. Know your zones.

I think you can do that as long as you have a commercial license plate.

I just looked and apparently it's a "Freight Zone", whatever the hell that means. I am assuming you need to have a commercial plate to park there at anytime. Oh well

What building do you work at? I might be able to get you off of it. I'm kind of a big deal.

CPL. Who was the officer? Mark Weber by chance.
You work for Whitney?

...amateur move. Your flashers draw attention to anyone in the area who could potentially write you a ticket.

D Matthews was the officer. No I just work in the building.

Do people think that there's some rule against giving a parking ticket to a car with its flashers on?

haha no I just found it pretty ballsy to give a ticket to a car that is still running. Like I said it's only $20 so I am not really worried about it. I just found it interesting

Then get back to work and get a cart next time. You gotta have a commercial license plate to park in a loading zone until 6PM Use my parking garage. I need the money.
