My ordeal with CPA. Photo was taken while I was in the vehicle waiting to pick someone up, I appealed the ticket and got rejected. I told them it was my daily routine. I was in the vehicle at the time. No tint, taken on a cloudy day, Feb 21 17:05.
Yeah, it's a mere 40 bucks but it's about the principal.

This is the second time it has happened in a different vehicle and the ticket was cancelled.

CPA website: "Paid parking tickets are an admission of guilt, and as such an administrative review is unnecessary". I am not guilty of anything.

Apparently they use Sony cameras with res size of 1024x768, 1200x960 and for the license plate camera 640x800.

To my surprise, I requested the photo and they emailed it but in PDF. I brightened it up a bit and you can see my silhouette. Talk about low quality. Why wouldn't they provide the high res photos? I wonder if they send low res photos on purpose?

From CPA Customer Service, "If our officers see a person in a vehicle it is considered occupied and a ticket will not be issued."

Anyway, just sharing my ordeal.
