Nothing says All American City quite like fifty dollar parking tickets for forgetting to put a two cent placard up on the dashboard.

is Southie such a bad place to be, though?

If you're trying to leave the spot where you parked at the curb, yes.

if you are trying to do anything that involves a car, such as driving or parking, yes.

Not as bad as Somerville...but it's not great.

In re: double parking there, it has been known to significantly impede ambulances, according to an EMT friend of mine.

Wasn't it in deference to the locals' tradition of double parking that the Broadway Silver Line route was canceled?

At http://www.archboston.org/community/showthread.php?t=2415 , people said the Silver Line SL3 was discontinued due to very low ridership. And residents didn't want it to be extended further into the neighborhood due to noise concerns.

We must not be talking about the same thing. The Broadway Silver Line route appeared on promotional maps but was canceled before it ever ran. As the first commenter in your linked discussion said, the SL3 never served East Broadway, or "anywhere people need to go".
