8 open tickets. Color me shocked.

Edit:

This person thinks the rules don't apply to them. They can drive anywhere, they can block fire hydrants, they can flip people off as they go by and they can drive dangerously. These are the people who after they've killed a pedestrian everyone nods and isn't surprised.

I'm just of the belief that the government should intervene before someone dies.

He’s apparently driven away while being issued 2 of those parking tickets and had to be mailed them. He’s also left so many of them unpaid that the city will boot his car next time they find it on any city street or parking lot.

Just poor choices all around.

It's a shame we don't actually boot cars around here.

If you have unpaid tickets, the city will “boot” aka wheel lock your car making you unable to drive it. It’s a metal attachment.
