FWIW ~ Broken Meters

Used to be you could park at a broken meter, no problem. It makes sense: In many areas, there are few enough places to park, and it's not a driver's fault that a particular meter hasn't been fixed yet. Well, apparently, some cities beg to differ. Here's the story on parking at a broken meter in and around L.A., courtesy of the June issue of AAA's Westways magazine:
  • Long Beach, Ventura, Pasadena, and Newport Beach ~ verboten
  • Santa Barbara County ~ 45 minutes only
  • Los Angeles and San Diego counties ~ allowed, except at the new meters that take cash or credit cards
All clear now?
