[QUOTE="TooTechie, post: 1504119, member: 28388"] I deliver in the city and in the 9 months I've been on the route I've only gotten 2 (well 3 if you count one that she looked like she started writing as I drove away but I never physically got a ticket.) The last guy who bid this route got like one a week. Basically they'll leave me alone as long as I don't violate one of their unwritten rules for ups guys: 1) Don't park on the sidewalk. Even if there is nowhere else to park, parking on the sidewalk pisses them off. 2) Don't park in a section of curb with a sign for handicapped. Sometimes the signs are hard to spot or not facing the right way or far down the street, but if you're parallel parked in a section they feel is handicapped parking they'll write it up. 3) Double parking is fine as long as no one wants to leave. When you're blocking someone in and they want to leave and there happens to be a meter maid nearby they'll write you up. They don't care about parking in no parking zones or blocking fire hydrants--just the above stuff. When I get a ticket I just leave it in an on-car's mail slot and they pay it. The sup trained me to park on the sidewalk on some one way streets rather than walking it off and they really don't care about parking tickets, but I try not to upset the meter maids. At least in the picture up above the ups truck was legally parked in a loading zone. [/QUOTE]
