Don't Mess With City Employees

[Scat]

Two city employees paint a handicap area around a legally parked car and have it towed.

So how many years are they going to get towed to prison?

Looks like none:

Hila Ben-Baruch called the city to find out how her car could have been towed from a once-legal parking spot in a matter of hours with no advance warning. Instead, she was accused of knowingly parking in a handicapped spot and told she’d have to pay 1,350 shekels — about $365 — in towing and violation fees.

Tel Aviv’s mayor and deputy mayor each apologized later for the incident and said it had all been a mistake: It’s apparently fine for city workers to re-designate a parking spot — even if occupied — but workers are supposed to inform the parking inspectors’ office that the vehicle had been parked legally.

I'm digging that chick's name though. Hila Ben-Baruch. Hila Ben-Baruch. Hila Ben-Baruch. Hila Ben-Baruch.

Gotta be a setup. Way too coincidental that that camera just happens to be perfectly aimed at that specific parking spot.

So it's also legal to send the person a fine? How is someone not getting fired for this?

Oh, this happened in Israel. Idiots. What sort of dumbass policy lets people make a desalinated spot when someone is parked in it. If I were her I'd sue the city if it's possible. Without that video she would have been fined, as the morons there wouldn't have believed her.

Because it's fake? At least that's my theory.
