You work hard, you deserve a nice car.
The City of San Francisco, however, believes you deserve parking tickets.
Here’s how to get out of ‘em: Fixed, an app for fighting SF’s inevitable tax on vehicle ownership, now available for download.
Fact: about half of tickets contested in the courtroom by the Bay get tossed out.
Additional fact: contesting tickets is a demoralizing time suck, and it’s easier to take the $70 wallet hit than fight the good fight.
Fixed is even easier. To use, simply take a picture of the ticket. Choose from a list of pretexts (broken meter, inscrutable signage, etc.), submit, and the Fixed team goes to work.
It’ll even crunch your odds of success.
Lose: you take your lumps with SFMTA. Fixed doesn’t take a cent.
Win: Fixed takes 25% of the defeated fine as payment.
And you take 100% of the moral victory.
