My sister got one today in philly. She was wondering if she could get away without paying it since she is in a rental car. I'm assuming there is some way they can track her down if she doesn't pay, but i'm not sure.

Instead of the headache just tell her to pay it. I think the last parking ticket I got in Philly was 40 bucks.

I did, she doesn't want to pay. If it was me I would just pay the ticket and be done with it.

what im assuming is.. the police will run the plate, see that it belongs to a rental company and see who had said car on the specified date

i think i have 15 parking tickets or so that i've never paid. lol. i just never feel like filling the meters. What happens in new jersey if you have 4 or 5 that you blew off when you go back to that town? do you get arrested? i woudl hope not, b/c that is just stupid.

^^if you do somethin to get pulled over in a town where you have back tickets, yes they can arrest you^^

idk where, but in some states the tickets are assigned to the car rather than the driver, so technically you can sell your car and leave the worries to someone else...


but just pay the tickets, or park right the first time

Thanks for the feedback guys, it sounds like she is going to have to pay the ticket. Oh well, i'll just have to give her the bad news then :devil:

I worked at a rent a car and when we got tickets for people running thru the expass we sent it on to the customer.

i work in the rental department for springfield ford and when ppl get tickets they send the notice to our rental department and then we charge the person credit card for the ticket and then 50 extra dollars for the hastle, and usually by the time we get the ticket its all ready went up another 25 dollars
