          Why would someone use speech to text for a post like this without spell checking it afterwords? There is punctuation in it, did they say period and double quote?

          It’s somehow hearing “station” inbetween pays and four? Or I guess more likely it’s somehow hearing “pays” as “ps”.

        So…

        They still likely wrote the ticket because you said you fed the meter…

        And if the cop wanted to be a dick, he could have wrote you a ticket as well?

        I didn’t realize you were the OP in the screenshot till now.

        But if you really did that, it sounds like you didn’t understand you didn’t prevent that car from getting a ticket, because you admitted to feeding it.

          well that’s why i also fed the meter next to it that he was going to go for. and i stocked up with 8 quarters from my change charge now for when i walk my dog next XD. let me try and provide some context, the city put street meters on all roadside parking, theoretically you can get a local driver decal, but in practice thats only for homeowners because its also a college town. the meter maids are ruthless, and the tickets have like massive amounts written big in bold on them like 40 60$ and then in little print says pay by the end of the day and its on … 10$! Plus the actual fees are paid to a company that has a contract with the town. They(the town) are paying hundreds of thousands of dollars to enforce parking fees and the locals hate it, but we’re a small minority, many of local do not hate it. it is the trenches of parking enforcement
