Soo I got a parking ticket today, because I completely forgot that meters existed, but they wrote down the wrong license plate number on the ticket. Is this a lucky break? Can i get away with not paying it? Or will they somehow track me down and then fine me even more if I don't pay it??

Thanks!

The last parking ticket I got was in Lowell and they wouldn't have found me if they got the wrong plate #. all they had written down on the sheet was the plate, not the VIN (make sure that's not on there). they don't run the plates, which is how stolen cars get piles of tickets on them without the owner knowing.

don't pay it. if they have your address, they'll send a demand to the address your car's registered at with an extra $5.00 tacked on. i think $5.00 is a good gamble to possibly not get one at all.

And they probably won't have the right address if they wrote the plate down wrong. :)

Also, they don't tack on the $5 right away.

Sorry elise, we're in Davis Square, which is a neighborhood in Somerville Massachusetts. It's thousands of miles away from Davis, California and has very different weather.

California has lots of different climates (in some places it does get cold in the winter, in other places it does not.)

Good luck!

But, oddly...I grew up in Davis, California (like birth to my mid 20's; my mom and sister still live there), and now I live near Davis Square...

If they wrote down the wrong license number, I think you're lucky -- but some other poor soul is going to be unlucky ....
