update: ticket *cancelled* that was issued to car with visitor's pass on the "Zone 5 resident permit only" side of the unit block of R Street NW

Recall this 06-11-2013 item?

I had a friend in town a few weeks ago and got the standard 2 week visitor pass (zone 5) from the police department. Unfortunately, she was given a ticket on the zone 5 resident permit only side of R Street, even those the 2 week visitor pass was properly displayed in her car. A few days later I asked the police department about it and they felt that the ticket was inappropriate stating that a visitor pass should grant all the rights residents. Apparently the parking enforcement officer disagreed. Whatever the case, it might be worth passing this on as a warning for those using 2 week visitor passes.

Here is a 06-15-2013 update:

   

The ticket was cancelled.
