just went for a movie along orchard and parked at emerald hill public carpark the lots outside that condo opposite heeren and when i got back there was a parking ticket for 30 bucks issued at 3.30am! best thing was no sign stating that parking was not free and none of the usual ''till 10pm'' ones as well. the guy who did it is probably the biggest donkey-screwing asswipe in the country coming out to summon people at 3.30 in the morning! government nothing better to do ah deploy so many useless people to summon cars at wee hours and yet they can let a crippled terrorist escape wtf man. anybody got any insights as to complaining to the parking authorities? bomoh recommendations to curse the ''hardworking'' fella are welcome as well

Just pay la... ![]()
lolx like u say carpark was not free at all
So that guy must be a hardworking one, GG ![]()
government is out there to suck your money dry. I dont think they are employing 'useless' people in this case.
You see, the parking wardens do their job, you should do yours, put a valid parking coupon, and spoil their day.![]()

Agree, I rather pay a fine, than to get some lawyer's letter from an angry resident.![]()
Does the ticket indicate a court date for an appeal? If you truly feel the ticket was issued in error, you should turn up on the appointed date to fight the ticket.
i thought we can just write in to appeal?

First of all, you took a gamble, hoping to get away with the coupons and you lost it. Then you put the blame on the warden issuing you the ticket/fine. Comparing this this with MSK case? I don't think there is a link.
You called the warden useless? He was just doing his job, if there are no people like you playing around with gambles not to put the coupons, theres no reason to employ the wardens. Now you even want to curse them..... Curse yourself in the begining when you decided not to pay for parking.

I do not know how the appeals process works in Singapore for traffic tickets, but I am assuming it is somewhat similar to the process here in the US, i.e., a court date is indicated on the traffic citation in case you want to plead your case in front of a judge.
are you saying that we should allow indiscriminate illegal parking just because it's 3.30 am?
There are reasons they give timings for carparks regarding when there is a need to pay and when not.
isn't there a way to generate fake parking coupons? cannot design a similar one using photoshop and print them out on those hard paper?
wait till you get one on eve of CNY at 5pm.

This reply is just for you:
If you had the ability to forge just one item out of the 2 given choices perfectly, would you forge a $50 note, or a 50cent half an hour parking coupon?![]()
Back to the main topic, traffic wardens really work wee hours, once I woke up at 0430am, and spyed one of them patrolling the service carpark downstairs my block.
Can't miss them under the bright lamp posts and white uniform.(i don't think a ghost wants to walk from car to car to check on your parking coupons)![]()

Definitely it will be successful, no point arguing sometimes, just give the benefit of doubt. You should hear the kind of excuses that come in at town councils. Stomach ache is the most frequently used.![]()

Come on lah. The warden is just doing his job. You took a gamble, and you lost, so pay the fine. From wat u said, I'm sure it's not the first time u park there. Since u already siam paying so many times, just pay once lor.
