Excess to whatever taxes may contribute towards traffic maintenance already, is what I meant. Or maybe it’s estimated that a lot of the money will come from things like parking fines, to create a more self sustained system.

I was over it the moment it happened because I knew I was in the wrong, and I have no interest in fighting something as simple and clear cut as a parking fine. Like I already stated, the fact that I got a ticket was not the point of the post. Curiosity about the economics is the point of the post, which was piqued by the event of getting a ticket. I really don’t know how to make that any clearer.
