I park at the university of windsor engineering lot, and always display my parking pass. However, when the weather is nice, and I roll my windows down, I take the pass down so it doesn't fly off and away. The other day, I forgot to display it. I returned to my car, only to find a parking ticket! Of course I was upset, but I realized it was my fault.

So, I grabbed the ticket and took a look at the amount, which was $0.00. Very confused by this, I thought it must be an error. I looked at the ticket more thoroughly, and saw the message: "Warning: display parking pass". So, the officer let this one go, with no fine. Either the officer knew by my car/ plates that I have a pass, or just gave me the benefit of the doubt. Either way, he/ she could have given me a real ticket.

It may seem weird, but I almost cried, mainly because I have been having a very hard time lately, in a lot of ways. So, a deed like this may seem insignificant to some, but it's a big deal to me. Thank you so much! :)
