For car parks other than local authority ones, this is an invoice not
a fine.  Although the wording would usually try to convince you
otherwise...

"In New York State, local police vehicles are not issued license
plates. In some cases, such as New York City, the fleet number of the
vehicle is put on a flat license plate using heat transferred
letters."

Looking at another image with a NYPD police car in it, I confirmed
that the car did not have a license plate, but instead there was a
plain metal rectangle bearing the fleet number of the car, i.e.,
"4769-13" and nothing else.  That number is also painted on the body
of the car.

So, in New York, police cars do not have license plates!

In some states certain classes of vehicles (electric carts?) don't
require license plates at all. If a vehicle falls within one of those
categories, it wouldn't matter who it belongs to.

Nice shot.

Assume it's for a parking control officer to pop out and ticket people?
Lucky you if you have them!

We have a new breed of big brother anti-parking measures here. Some
cities and councils have a adopted a method whereby a van with a CCTV
camera is aimed at parked vehicles at the side of the roads it patrols,
and it simply records vehicle identities through number plate
recognition technology that are parked illegally - on what we call
'double yellow lines' painted by the kerb.

So in the old days, you'd pull over and leave the engine running on
double yellows to use the ATM ten feet away, get your money, and be off
in 30 seconds or less - all the while mindful of a parking attendant.

Now, you've only got to be waiting at a traffic light to turn left
(equivalent right in USA/Canada/etc) and the van can nail you thinking
that you're parked. Not supposed to but that has happened.

Every car park now has number plate recognition cameras at the entrance
and if you overstay your allotted 90 minutes or whatever, the fine comes
through the mail.

Regarding CCTV cameras, I once used to be of the mind that 'if you've
done no wrong, then there's nothing to fear'. But this is getting
ridiculous - I have changed my opinion and now abhor this proliferation
of state-sponsored spying. It is atrocious.



Get thee to a bicycle shoppe.

If you ride a bicycle in city traffic around here you have to worry

Nice shot.

Assume it's for a parking control officer to pop out and ticket people?
Lucky you if you have them!

We have a new breed of big brother anti-parking measures here. Some
cities and councils have a adopted a method whereby a van with a CCTV
camera is aimed at parked vehicles at the side of the roads it patrols,
and it simply records vehicle identities through number plate
recognition technology that are parked illegally - on what we call
'double yellow lines' painted by the kerb.

So in the old days, you'd pull over and leave the engine running on
double yellows to use the ATM ten feet away, get your money, and be off
in 30 seconds or less - all the while mindful of a parking attendant.

Now, you've only got to be waiting at a traffic light to turn left
(equivalent right in USA/Canada/etc) and the van can nail you thinking
that you're parked. Not supposed to but that has happened.

Every car park now has number plate recognition cameras at the entrance
and if you overstay your allotted 90 minutes or whatever, the fine comes
through the mail.

Regarding CCTV cameras, I once used to be of the mind that 'if you've
done no wrong, then there's nothing to fear'. But this is getting
ridiculous - I have changed my opinion and now abhor this proliferation
of state-sponsored spying. It is atrocious.

Well, calling it a meter maid special wouldn't have made you want to
look at the image.  
Actually, it was just standing there impeding the flow of traffic.
