Went to wally world tonight around 8:00pm and pulled into one of the handicap spaces and next to us there was an officer writing a ticket for a car parked in a handicap space with no visable plate card. As we got out of our car the officer ask if we had a plate card and we had better get it put up. It was already hanging on the mirror. We went inside and about 15 mins. later I came back out of the store to set in my car and the officer was still there. I heard him on his radio calling to find out what amount to put on the ticket. Finally he put the ticket on the windsheild and left. I thought boy it was about time the police started ticketing these people for parking illegal. I know they have more important things to do then write tickets at wally world, but it was still nice to see. I sat there for a while and thought this is going to be funny when who ever owned the car came out and found that they had a ticket. Waited for about 30 mins. and low and behold here came two more officers and stopped behind this same car and I hear the lady officer say this is the veichel and walked to the front of the car and seen that it already had a ticket on it. The lady officer said to her partner lets see how they do this. She took the ticket off the windsheild and chuckled a little and said I thought the fine for this offense was $150.00 not $119.00 plus court cost. Her partner said, these people are lucky we didn't get here before Officer Gordon. Any way hubby came out finally about 9:30 and those people had still not came out. We lrft and went to eat and relized that we had forgotten something and back to wally's we went. That damn car was still there.And that was at 10:45.
I don't know what can be done about this problem but you would think old wally would hire people and have them deputized and write there own tickets. After so long of a time have them towed at owners expense. It would surely leave the police time to do what they need to be doing.
I know I'm just an old
but someone might be interested in my ranting
