More parking tickets are being issued than ever - why???

It’s been all over the news - Fox 5’s John Deutzman’s story revealed that parking tickets are being issued with false addresses. If these addresss really existed, they’d be blocks into the Atlantic Ocean. ABC’s Nina Pineda covered drivers who’d received parking tickets while handing over their vehicles to valet parking attendants outside expensive NYC restaurants. Drivers have complained that they’ve been receiving parking tickets in the time it takes them to exit their cars (quarters in hand) and get to the parking meter. But what is the connecting thread?

It now seems clear that those who issue parking tickets are willing to falsify addresses, pounce on unsuspecting motorists without even giving them what should be the mandatory time to

It now seems clear that those who issue parking tickets are willing to falsify addresses, pounce on unsuspecting motorists without even giving them what should be the mandatory time to feed a meter and otherwise give out tickets unfairly, just to satisfy the quotas. Apparently, it doesn’t matter that the tickets are completely bogus, only that they are written.
