I brought my bike up to my school for the past week or so becuase it has been nice and my car is in the shop, so i parked it in the school lot by my appartment in one of those yellow lined areas (it is about 20ft wide next to the garbage dunpsters) because there were no more spots and the only other option was to park in a dirt/gravel lot about 1/2 a mile away.... and that wasnt happening. So anyway i put my bike under my cover thinking that i wont get a ticket cause my plate isnt showing and they cant go under my cover (which is strapped down). I come out today to take the bike out take off the cover and there are not one but TWO tickets sitting on my seat... issued 3hrs apart on the same day by the same "officer". Now my question/complaint is that i did not think taht someone could remove a cover to give a ticket (even police) because it is considered "breaking into" the vehicle (same priciple as a soft top cover on a wrangler), he did so not once but TWICE. So what are you guys thoughts?

p.s. on my campus they are NOT police but "public safety", they have virtually no athourity to make students do anything


Sorry for the long *** post

 

you gonna have to pay 1, not both of the tickets. secondly if he would of done that to mine i would of jumped all over is azz and told him if he ever touched my bike/cover again i was gonna hang my foot so far up his azz that you would need a search warrant to get it back.

 

I have been ticketed for similar situations on campus, when I attended college. It was also issued by the campus security. I did not have to pay because there was no designated Motorcycle Parking areas. I actually spoke to the dean of students about the matter, don't know if you want to take it that far, but I did.

I do not know about the issue with the cover.

 

o belieeeve me if i saw it happen **** would have gone down... your exactly right he has NO right to touch my personal property

 

im going to see what happens, im going to try and find out the laws with regards to bikes under covers then im going into the security office and raising hell... if that doesnt work i will prolly take it to the dean

 

mangz you have his name, so see him and explain to him if he touches your **** again youll beat him into a pulp.

 

thats the thing the ticket doesnt have a name on it... only an issued by number, i gotta see if the security office will tell me who it is (which i doubt)

 

I think you might be better off with the no reserved bike parking direction...unless there is. Thats just my .o2 cents

 

^^^ there is reserved parking... but its probablya mile or so away from my appartment, i dont feel like i should have to walk all the way across campus in a riding jacket gauntlet gloves and racing boots carrying a helmet haha

 

Damnit! Yeah your going thesame direction that I'd take too then
