Where could this person park while issuing the tickets?

what exactly does "no parking" mean? Is there a reason that sign exists? Maybe a safety issue? Or should the sign say : "no parking unless issuing tickets". Lets not be dumb here, honest question

Any downvotes, I'm good with. just clarify things. let stupid be known.

The problem they’re solving for is keeping people from parking there for long periods blocking whatever needs to be done. To enforce it they need to let a meter maid also park in no parking for 15 mins. Also they have to park somewhere to give the tickets.

I mean I get it, it’s frustrating, but its like if you get pulled over for speeding but are then mad the cop had to speed to get catch you.

Would you expect the ticketing employee person to pay for parking in a legal parking spot, while they writing tickets?

ya'll out here talking about whether or not I live in the city, whether I'm being too sensitive. I AM PART OF THE CITY. I may not have a perspective several care about, but I care about our city
