Well, they're obviously not radioing in each ticket, as my girlfriend has
received "seize and sell" warnings from the DC government, but got a ticket
and no boot last week.

On my street, people usually park within 5 to 10 feet of the intersection.
One of the tickets that aged enough to deserve the boot was a "within 40'"
violation.  I'd be willing to bet that people only get ticketed when they're
in a cop's way...
