I don't even think the cops do that. Jersey City has a Division of Parking under public safety that dishes out street cleaning and other park violations.

It's also not even remotely true. I bet if I walked around my block right now I'd see 5-10 illegally parked cars with no tickets.

Honestly though, if we didn't have illegal parking there probably would be almost no parking at all here.

There's way too much parking and way too much of it is free or free-adjacent.

Yeah, they're not the best. Usually only do their jobs during street sweeping. Even sometimes, the streetsweeper comes without the parking enforcement person haha.

Meanwhile in Asbury Park they will ticket you before you finish paying

Yeah, parking handles parking violations but if you see a handwritten ticket on your car, that means a cop went out of his way to fuck with you that day.

Honestly they're pretty lazy too, I know I've gotten away with a few things. And my roommate still hasn't bought his permit for residential parking but has only got 1 ticket

What are you talking about??? I could pull my e-brake in the middle of Columbus and go get brunch. Zero parking laws are enforced.
