    Default Parking Ticket on Garbage Collection Day

    Hello,
    I recieved a parking ticket on garbage collection day. the car was parked in my driveway but it was resting over my sidewalk. I realize that parking over a driveway is an infraction but my ticket clearly stated it was 257.674-2 and "garbage collection day parking" the car was in no way blocking any part of the street. I looked all over the WWW and i cant find anything that links 257.674-2 to garbage collection. what are my chances fighting this money grab?

    You didn't identify either your state or the municipality. If you want help identifying the reference, please identify both.

    The best I can do for now is Michigan, MCL 257.674(2), "A person shall not move a vehicle not owned by the person into a prohibited area or away from a curb a distance that makes the parking unlawful", but I don't see how that would apply.

    That's not an ordinance number; I'm still not seeing how that statutory provision would apply. Perhaps the officer's penmanship is bad, or the officer made a mistake when referencing the subsection.

    Id love to attach a pic of the ticket. the instructions on how to do so are either outdated or wrong.
