Stopped by the city hall and parked around 17:00 to pickup food at Dragon Pearl went to pay for parking I noticed the pay meter was not on touched the screen and (keyword), assumed it was free at certain times in the evenings went on my way and came back and had a ticket on my windshield saw the parking enforcement office and said, "really!". He asked, "why didn't you pay?", I explained, "I tried but the screen stayed black when I touched it." I said, "where I live Las Vegas, NV, if the touch screen stays black it's free also certain days and times as well.", The officer said, "first of all if you read the slip you would have seen that it's a warning and not a citation and let me show you how to use the meter cause they all can be different." The meters have a power button (half circle with a line type), he also explained he doesn't always make it a habit of ticketing new people because they don't always know the rules, he show me the machine we first bumped and we went on our way what a cool guy for a city official!
