Reply to comment by HockeyMusings in More 'boots' on the ground?' "DC looks to hire more officers to address rise in illegally parked cars" by SomeLikeItRaw

If my meter expires the city loses money, if I block a fire hydrant people could die. Not the same impact.

Hey, we are talking about reasons to boot cars here. That a certain amount of unpaid tickets, 4 as suggested by the post I am responding to) is enough to lock up someone’s car.

All I’m saying is that payment vs non-payment shouldn’t factor into the decision to deny someone access to their car.

If you want to boot a car for four hydrant tickets, fine. But boot all the cars that get four hydrant tickets. Not just the ones that don’t pay.
