    I parked my truck at 7400 south Narragansett ave to do the delivery for .... It is a dead end street, no coming traffic or through traffic. I parked at outside the dock for 4am delivery appointment.

    in the morning, I got a parking ticket at 1:30am from the bedford park police department. not much only 30 dollars.

    should I pay the ticket?

    at the side the street, it doesn't say anything no over night parking or no parking.

    Parts of Chicago have city-wide ordinances that you should look into before parking on any street or even any parking lot.

    I remember parking in a Walmart parking lot near Markham, only to have a friendly LEO pull up alongside and inform me that I will get ticketed if I try to stay there overnight. Ended up parking behind a 4-wheeler gas station in Harvey.

    Then again, I've parked overnight within Chicago city-limits before and had no problem.

    And a hundred dollars becomes a thousand. Magic of fees, courts and interest. Next thing you know your CDL is no good.

    Pay it.

    Ive paid mountains of tickets. No big deal with parking, in fact I have made groups of Police stand around at my tractor door two hours or more on purpose to work for their 40 dollars ticket or whaterver. That is tickets they are not writing other truckers.

    Pay it. What else are you going to do about it that costs less than 30 bucks?

    Its only $30.00 so it's best to pay it before it starts to add interest.No since fighting it.
