That booted vehicle could prevent someone from driving to the hospital to deliver a baby or prevent someone who relies on her vehicle for her livelihood, a means to earn money that day.

I’m not advocating that people do not pay their parking meters or their tickets. I’m simply questioning the reasonableness of booting vehicles for a pretty small amount of money that could be collected by other means.

Booting cars is seizing a person’s property and another means of collecting more revenue for the city (there’s a fee associated with unbooting). Booting after one ticket seems extra unreasonable.
