Parking Ticket in Seaside - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

So I received a parking ticket in Seaside the other night. I remember them having parking meters but this time when I went there were none. Apparently they now have what I think are called parking stations. Basically you go to the nearest corner and put your card in and pay for your spot there. Each spot was numbered. This is what I am assuming you do.

Of course I didn't see any signs and the nearest sign was probably half a block away. The ticket is $45 bucks. I know it's not much but being in college, I am broke.

Anyway is it worth going to court and telling them I figured it was free because there weren't any parking meters.

I know a few blocks from the boardwalk all the spots are free as well.

Thanks a lot for your time.

whats worth more the $45, or the time, effort and gas to try and keep the $45

remember, ignorance of the law is not an excuse for breaking the law

You put it that way it makes sense.

Thanks for your time.
