Wrong direction?

[madscientist01.livejournal.com]

Sorry to bring up everyone's favorite topic around here... but I got cited for parking in the wrong direction today. I have never even heard of this. I was not on a one way street, and pulling in and out of the spot didn't seem any more dangerous than making a left/right turn. But yes, I was parked on the left side of the street, opposite from most cars. Do I have any chance in contesting this? And, slightly relevant, I read on the ticket that it could be adjudicated (appealed) online. Anyone done this?

I live on a very short dead end. The idea of the wrong side is very muddy. I've been ticket for parking in the wrong direction twice - each time I was parked in a different direction. I appealed the second one and it was dismissed. But I think only because I had the previous ticket.

Is that clear?
