"Blocking Handicap Ramp" ticket

[rethcir.livejournal.com]

Has anyone had any luck fighting a "blocking handcapped ramp" ticket? I was parked in a spot on a curved corner that I'm pretty sure I've parked in several times before, that happens to have a ramp coming down. I'm pretty sure there is no paint or bump strips on it, and It's $200 that I would much rather spend on something else.

Please, no snark, i'm not in the mood.

Someone ought to tell Somerville this - "Handicapped" is taken verbatim from their $200 ticket.

I'm sure it was. And someone does need to tell them it shouldn't be used--not because it isn't "PC," as you suggested, but because it's outdated for very good, social justice-oriented reasons (and, I maintain, grammatical ones...).
