NEW ORLEANS - If you are prone to getting parking tickets in the city of New Orleans, expect it to cause you more pain in the pocketbook.

Starting Monday, Feb. 29, a parking violation will cost you $30, up from the previous cost of $20.

There is even a more substantial cost for parking in a residential parking spot without a permit. Those 2-hour maximum parking spots will cost you $75, up from $40.

If it's just a mile, why not just walk it every day?

My parents have handicapped license plates. You're supposed to have 3 hours of available to park for free. Meter maid wrote up a ticket 15 minutes after we parked and said it went over time. Wasted a whole morning at parking authority because of the idiots. Only reason we did anything was so car wouldn't get booted.

City is broke. Streets suck. Mayor sucks. Saints suck. Pelicans suck. Only reason to go is to piss in the street and puke everywhere.


What a shithole.
