To pay for street parking in Seattle, you get this sticker thing and put it on the side window facing the sidewalk, or the driver side window. We do it all the time (and complain about the high parking fees).
Came to Austin and needed to park. The machine is almost identical to the Seattle one. They must came from the same vendor. The sticker thing is also nearly identical. OK, we got this. Stick it up the side window and we left.
Two hours later we return to the car and saw the ticket on the wind shield. WTF. We paid.
Austin City meter police must have too much time on-hand.
