| 420397 | 2006-01-24 02:09:00 | ALL parking lots in California are dedicated rights-of-way and have the onus of being police patrolled and have the same enforceable laws as streets and byways. All applicable laws are gleefully enforced by the local constables. Another shot in the arm here lately. California has so many older cars in very good condition body-wise, that it is a cottage industry to pull one out into a field and make it look like it's been parked there for a few years. The Sunday drivers from the big city see them and make ridiculously large offers to purchase them for "restoration". That being said, now along comes ol' Arnie The Governator, and he sees revenue in them there fields and sics the state tax board onto the land owners and fines them for having unregistered vehicles in eye shot. Even if they are in rusted hulk-condition, they are still taxable (via the department of motor vehicles definition of "vehicle = a contrivance that is used to purvey persons and/or cargo any distance via the use of internal combustion" ideology. So..we get guys with suits and field glasses peering into the fields and open barn doors to see if by chance they can espy a vehicle of any sorts and then enter it into their little laptops and have the state tax board collect fines and fees for the state because of delinquent registration and fees by seizing the property or tax refunds from the owner until the debt is paid. California is beginning to s@(k really big nowadays. |

| 420398 | 2006-01-25 01:15:00 | Phase 1: Posted a carefully worded letter to the Council today, sticking strictly to the options they provided and, amongst other things, pointing out that the vehicle could not be moved off the road because it had been immobilised by persons unknown. I also added a few other relevant facts and photos of the damage as proof of veracity. I have disabled the steering lock and shifted it off the road of course, as a precaution against wanton towage. Watch this space. Cheers Billy 8-{) |

Got a Disputes Tribunal matter coming up soon for myself, but within the limits they allow I have steered a few people through the process to a successful outcome. I have also acted as an expert witness commissioned by the Tribunal to assist the Referee in a technical dispute. Cheers Billy 8-{) |
