U-Hual in front of DC Residence (Traffic Law)

Mon, 25 Jul 2005 14:59:00 GMT

What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state? Washington DC
Recieved a parking violation for having a commercial vehical parked in front of a residence. It occured during the day (4:11pm), while I was moving my girlfriends items out of her apartment into the U-Haul (the commercial vehical) . The street is zoned for residential parking (2 hours) however the vehical was not parked over the indicated time allotment -- just during the time that I was moving.
As a side note, the vehical was parked in a parking garage the previous night and I have a reciept indicating this fact (thus noting that there was no attempt to wanting to park on resident streets during the day / night -- even though I did not not this would be illegal too) .
Am I guilty of the parking violation? Please advise of course of action?

  • You weren't parking, you were loading, therefore you are not guilty of the violation. Fight it, and also tell the U-haul people, they may be able to help.
