I got a Parking ticket of $42.61 within 7 days $74.15 after 7 days in their indoor underground parking garage where the sign shows:
"FULL SIZE" in LARGE font - filled out the 1st row of the sign "Trucks Vans only" - all the letters are on the 2nd row I was very happy this garage got a parking spot designated for my Full Size Vehicle My car is a BMW740iL - is categorized as FULL SIZE vehicle with the length 201.7 inches whereas an official Full Size Dodge Ram Van length is 187.2 inches - by 14.5 inches shorter.
At the first sight of the sign - my understanding of the sign is allowing 3 categories of vehicles to park at the spot - namely (1) Full Size car (2) Truck (3) Van - therefore, have no hesitation to park there and accepted that my full size car is legal to park on the spot. Because I did not park a small size or compact car there.
The ticket on 23 Feb 2012 indicated "FULL SIZED TRUCKS / VANS ONLY" - the sign on the wall did not give clear indication of the "Full size" The length of my car is much longer than both of the vans parked side by side of my car. the sign is misleading / unclear / unreasonable The sign should have said "NO CAR but Truck & Van only" Then I will not choose to park at the spot at all.
