Parking Ticket Is Racist, Woman Says

A woman who got a parking ticket in New Canaan, Connecticut says the meter maid and the board that upheld the $30 fine are racist.

The woman's car was stopped in a no-parking zone when the meter maid approached with a ticket. The meter maid said the woman was sitting in the passenger seat of the car playing with her cell phone, but the woman said she was in the driver's seat, according to the Connecticut Post, which published a near-transcript of the appeal hearing.
