Man Creates Universal Parking Permit at Kinko’s
Fed up with paying for parking at work, the mall, the stadium, and on the street, Los Angeles resident Kirk McDowell took matters into his own hands last week when he drove to a local Kinko’s and printed out a laminated Universal Parking Permit.
“I can’t tell you how many tickets I’ve gotten parking on the street for being two minutes late to feed the meter. So I said the time has come to take a stand, and I designed this universal permit on my computer, which declares that I can park anywhere I want for free forever.”
But problems arose immediately when McDowell took his date for dinner and a movie at The Grove in
“That was a crushing blow. To have such a powerful document, not to mention a glorious statement about men struggling to be free, to have it rebuked hurt real deep.”
But the hurt was only beginning: in the six days since he first printed the universal permit, McDowell has also gotten two tickets on the street and been punched in the face by the manager of a parking structure in downtown
“All brave men, all risk-takers are reviled at first. I will carry on my crusade against the tyranny of outrageous parking costs.”
