As you may be able to tell I am heartily sick of hearing stories from riders of getting tickets for this sort of thing, and the almighty fight you have to get the ticket dropped. Time, energy and stress with no apology or compensation for their mistake. There is no incentive for the wardens to get it right and no repercussions if they fuck up.
Then try this ;
If they give you a ticket that is clearly bullshit, then write them a polite letter explaining the error. If they won't let you off, then do nothing whatsoever and wait for the court summons. Then tell the judge you explained politely in writing and then calmly went back to your life, and now you are here explaining it politely again. Give him the documentation to prove it, and then politely ask for costs thank you very much.
You might also ask the judge if it is ok to tell the city representative how you feel about this, since you are an emotionally literate person yadda yadda yadda, and then give them a fucking earful lol. I'm quite sure that will be very satisfying.
I seriously doubt that the city traffic department will cope with many embarrassing moments like this, particularly if the newspaper is there to report on it.
Don't get all stressed about shit like this. It's just a game, and at the end of the day if you do get a fine its just a few hundies - life goes on, don't beat yerself up.
