Parking ticket -Alamo

choccyface · 8 Aug 22, 10:08 PM

We stupidly got a parking ticket for using 2 spaces (didn’t realise/see the concrete at the front of the dirt carpark symbolised a space - simply followed the line of cars parked - must have been something like 6inches over🙄 anyway it’s a $150 fine. Looked online and it’s not showing as available to pay - what happens if we leave without paying - do Alamo charge extra and pass it on to us (totally expect it to be passed on). It made a very expensive day trip to captiva/sanibel🥲

Thanks - have managed to pay it online - message popped up saying 66 other fines not paid - did I want to pay?! Had a nosey….. lots of fines for parking in residents bays, not displaying a ticket, ticket expired. No-one daft enough to take 2 spots like us tho🙄. Took multiple screenshots of payment acceptance in case Alamo try to pass it on

I think that’s a general US law everywhere.
