‘I don’t make the rules, I just follow them': College students share clever methods to get out of paying unjustified parking tickets

Being a college student already puts you at a difficult starting point when it comes to your financial state. There is simply so much one has to pay for in college, and physically being in school also means you can't really work to pay for everything college demands.

One of the most infuriating things colleges usually take money for is parking. Apparently, the tuition is not enough to secure a place to park on campus, so colleges resort to asking even more money for parking passes or permits.

That is where this clever discussion comes into the picture. Initially, this started as a Reddit story from the subreddit 'Malicious Compliance', which tells the tale of how one college student followed the rules and maliciously got out of a parking ticket. Then, people in the comments also share some clever ways they got away with parking on campus without having to pay ridiculous amounts of money for parking passes or tickets.
