Ticket to Park

I just had to respond to “Ticket to Ride” (Letters, February 20) and the comment, “There are No Smoking signs posted everywhere in El Cajon, and a person smoking under each one of them.”

I live across the street from Valhalla High School, and every school day there are parents parked right next to the No Parking - Bike Lane signs. I have lived there for 13 years and have never seen the Highway Patrol ticketing them. I’m sure if they did do that, there would be a loud scream from the parents: How dare they ticket me!

By the way, the students there do a better job of obeying that law than their parents. I have yet to see a student do that. Those who do park on the street are always within the legal parking areas.
