If:

  • You are foolish enough to attempt parking in San Francisco on a Saturday afternoon
  • You park sloppily, such that your car is blocking 4 inches of someone's driveway
  • They call the police to complain
  • The police come and find your car there

Then:

  • They fine you $75 for the trouble

This concludes tonight's Public Service Announcement. The check is in the mail.

Didn't you know, driveways in The City are sacrosanct. It is illegal to even THINK of parking in front of a driveway. I recall getting stuck several times when someone parked just a few inches too far into my driveway on Oak Street, the driveway angle was so tight I could not get my car out.

Man, just two days ago I got a ticket for parking in front on my OWN driveway here in SF. I was just home for an hour for lunch... f*$@ing street cleaning.
