Well, it was worth a try. But I paid online because it's not worth wasting a stamp. Take that!

P.S. Is it ironic that I worked for Utah State Parking and Transportation Services for two years of college? I know what it's like to be on the dark side of the law.

Sorry, well at least you got out of it 2/3 times! My favorite part is that they called you Nicole. I get that ALL the time :)

I didn't want to be Debbie the Downer but I had a feeling you'd be paying up. I saw right through your BS letter. Hopefully, your crime spree is over now that you've paid your dues.

You should have returned the letter marked: No Nicole Haws at this address.

It is always worth a try. Thanks for the update.

Ha, we just got almost the exact same letter in the mail just a couple of days ago for Landon's 4th violation in just over a year. Such a bummer! Luckily, on the same day we got a refund for ticket paid back in december, so ya never know...watch the mail in 8 months and you may have a little surprise!

I was just going to ask: have you been holding out on me? Has your name really been Nicole all this time?

HA. It's always worth a try.:)

Ditto 2 Mandy & Bekka. Shaun got a parking ticket in SF we r currently contesting. Lawyerly tip: never admit the violation in writing or @ a hearing.

What a Bummer. Those guys around the north market are cut throat- I got two within the same block because I didn't have a front license plate- both times (in two different cars).
Hey at least you didn't get your car towed while picking up free Panera bread and pay $110 to get it off the tow truck! That was the worst day ever.
