Worse than the metro pigs
Parking is a real bitch here.
Firstly, because I drive a huge assed ocean liner of a car, and secondly, traffic law enforement is real strict.
We moved into our apartment yesterday, and parked in the open lot instead of the underground garage since our access cards to the garage don't quite work yet. Arrived at the car this morn with this jammed in the door handle - my first traffic violation citation for parking in the lot without a permit.
It was written at 19h40 last night - who the fuck writes tickets at that time? For $65. That's almost R450!!! Not even Sgt Maria Mapaputsi makes that much cash after hours in Rivonia Road.
Spent a half hour looking for parking in the street this morning, EVERYWHERE's a no parking. And cars get clamped with a nice yellow boot, or towed depending on how pissed off they are.
Spiekops here are fucked up crazy, and like I said, worse than the metro pigs back home.
