Description

I recently got a ticket on my motorcycle at 1900 Market street. The meter arrows of left spot and right spot do not match the paint on the street therefore you can never be right on which meter to pay. I recommend all citations issued for meter number SM27006 be disqualified after a meter investigation is done and the paint on the spots are correctly labeled.
I posted a video for your viewing on the conditions of the new motorcycle meter program. This was the first time I used motorcycle parking meters and it’s AWESOME. I’m aware a new program will always have its typo’s…

Or YouTube "PPA typo"

If you do not have internet access I can email you the video directly.
Can you please do a meter investigation to verify that the A & B arrows point to mislabeled parking spots. I always put my money where the meter arrows point to and A should be left and B should be right. We are taught to read left to right, that’s just normal human behavior. But all the parking spots are painted backwards.
On another note, all the other meter spots on the street are labeled backwards also… FEDCBA when the 5 spot meter (without arrows under the LCD) reads ABCDEF. This is very confusing when wearing a helmet and fresh off a nice ride thru Philadelphia.
Thank you for your help.

Feels like PPA has a new scam for motorcyclist being green?
