slacker Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 Irregular News for 03.29.07 Waukesha, WI -- A $1 parking ticket from 1980 has been paid off, after the offender sent the payment along with a $3 late fee to police without giving a name. "It's kind of cool that someone took the time to take care of their obligation after 26 years," police Capt. Mike Babe told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel for a story posted online Monday. "Maybe their conscience got to them." The signature on the money order used to pay for the ticket is not legible, and the return address reads: "Someone who keeps way too many old papers way too long." The envelope carried a Chicago postmark. State transportation records show that the license plate number on the ticket is inactive. Waukesha stopped using parking meters in 1989, a city official said. source Quote Link to comment
