  Forgot to put my student permit on the car because I was in a rush this morning though - copped a $200 fine. Just what I need. Ruined my day

    Any chance you can get the fine waived by calling them and explaining the situation?

      No because although it’s University land the parking is overseen by Council and so they do not give two shits. “I had a 7am start and was rushing to meet my supervisor to get out into the field” is not considered adequate. The stinger is that they fined me only shortly before I got back from the field anyway… grrrrrrr

        It might be worth a shot. Just a simple explanation, was in a rush, forgot to put up permit, first time, lesson learned, attach photo of said permit. I got out of one last year with an ’ official warning’ because my delightful mother brought her disability permit with her, but left it in her handbag instead of applying it to the screen. Took me 5 minutes to apply for a review and saved my ass $200.
