We got a tip yesterday about an errant driver hogging a curbside spot in a residential area:
So, outside my house is a street with two hour parking. Today a Jaguarwith dealer plates was parked there all day. When I checked, it wasbecause there was an FD placard on the car.

Placards without borders. Gotta love it.
