Theft is on the rise in Athens, dangerous drugs are about as common as liberal professors, and drunk drivers are causing innocent accidents about as regularly as a good bowel movements. And yet my tax dollars are going to pay Athens LEOs to write tickets for people in our neighborhood who are parked in the driveway because their cars are not pulled all the way to the garage. My roommates have been parking this way for the 5 years that I have owned this house, and now they write my sister a ticket for parking on the sidewalk, along with, from what I saw this morning, about 15 other people in my neighborhood. Is that really the best way to be spending my tax dollars? How many people are going to be walking down the sidewalk in a neighborhood like mine at 3 30 in the morning (when the ticket was written). Seems like a huge crock of chit to me for Athens to generate a little bit of revenue from the lack of home games for UGA this month. Way to serve and protect ACC.............

I have to agree with the comment above. How are people in wheelchairs supposed to get around with you parked on the sidewalk?

it ain''t your sidewalk and you can''t park there. why complain if you''ve been getting away with it for 5 years? ''bout damn time somebody finally enforced that law, I say.
