NYS Inspection Ticket Under Ice & Snow
I was driving to work this morning after freeing my Lexus from the snow trap and I noticed a little yellow thing in the lower part of my windshield. It was buried in snow and ice, but I could make out the letters "tion" sticking up.
So when I got to my office I dug a bit and then took a picture:
I noticed it was a parking ticket of some sort. So I began digging it out and after a but of work and ripping the ticket a bit, I was able to get to it.
I brought the ticket upstairs to my office and let it defrost a bit. I actually thought of maybe putting it in the microwave, but decided not to.
After it defrosted I opened it up to find out I forgot to renew my New York State inspection and I got a ticket for violation code 306B.
I called the court and they told me it would cost $130 or so, since I was overdue by 30+ days.
So now I need to get my car inspected and pay a fine.
See, you find nice surprises in snow.
