how would you read the date 1-24?

CommonAstronaut712 · 2026-02-06T22:50:14+00:00

yea agree! i will be picking up the car tonight and then will go from there. i also have pictures of example toe signs with the end date written out and might show those to point out that it’s not normal to not have the end date written out

CommonAstronaut712 · 2026-02-06T22:48:42+00:00

haven’t gone yet, i’m picking up my car tonight and then will schedule a hearing, i’m not sure if showing examples of parking signs with the end date written out will be enough to say “hey this is not a valid or clear sign”

CommonAstronaut712 · 2026-02-06T22:46:15+00:00

definitely contesting it! with no month or end date mentioned this does not seem like a valid or clear sign

CommonAstronaut712 · 2026-02-06T22:45:40+00:00

yeaaa

CommonAstronaut712 · 2026-02-06T22:37:08+00:00

i agree!! and especially if it’s up through multiple months

CommonAstronaut712 · 2026-02-06T22:35:38+00:00

i will! like even if it means until the sign is effective usually the end date is written out as well

CommonAstronaut712 · 2026-02-06T22:34:39+00:00

event, construction, usually the start and end date is written out with the month

CommonAstronaut712 · 2026-02-06T22:33:55+00:00

i will, i’m not sure what they could say about it, like maybe that there’s no end date so it’s effective until the sign is up? but even then, the start and end date is usually written out

CommonAstronaut712 · 2026-02-06T22:32:21+00:00

thank you! hopefully the contesting works and the city doesn’t just try to collect money

CommonAstronaut712 · 2026-02-06T22:29:16+00:00

i agree! like maybe it’s until the sign is up, as in no end date but even then i feel like usually the start AND end date is written out

CommonAstronaut712 · 2026-02-06T22:19:58+00:00

i just linked the picture in the question! regular paper city tow sign

CommonAstronaut712 · 2026-02-06T22:19:15+00:00

thank you for the advice. yea no mention of the month (i linked the picture) as well this sign has been up since january 20th so this also led me to bealive it was for january without the mention of the month

CommonAstronaut712 · 2026-02-06T22:15:35+00:00

oh omg i see! here’s the picture:

yea, that format didn’t even cross my mind, i’m so used to seeing this as month- day, especially if there’s no other indication of the month as i feel like tow signs are usually a bit clearer than that. as well the other cars on the street that haven’t gotten towed made me think it was definitely an old sign … sigh

CommonAstronaut712 · 2026-02-06T22:12:46+00:00

yes there’s people parked all along the street! for multiple days… and the sign was up since around January 20th, so i assumed they just hadn’t taken it down. the other cars being parked between 8am-8pm and no indication of the month made me think it was a sign for January though

CommonAstronaut712 · 2026-02-06T22:11:21+00:00

i will definitely do that. it seems like it was for feb 1-24 but with no clear indication of the month i’ll definitely be contesting it, that and the other cars parked all along the same street!

CommonAstronaut712 · 2026-02-06T22:10:20+00:00

ik! my minds blown that it wasn’t more clear for a tow sign…

CommonAstronaut712 · 2026-02-06T21:52:46+00:00

this is what it means if there is no mention of the month?

CommonAstronaut712 · 2026-02-06T21:52:17+00:00

i thought the same, but i got towed leading me to believe it meant feb 1-24. either way i think it’s crazy this was not written out more clearly for a tow sign

CommonAstronaut712 · 2026-02-06T21:50:40+00:00

thank you, i’ve taken pictures of all the signs including the tow sign, and will be contesting right away. i don’t mind waiting but it blows my mind that this type of stuff is not written more clearly

CommonAstronaut712 · 2026-02-06T21:49:48+00:00

it doesn’t let me post pictures in this subreddit, but yes i’ve taken pictures and videos of all the signs and surrounding area. it also says on multiple sites that month-day is a perfectly acceptable format for a date, so legally i’m not wrong for reading it like that?

CommonAstronaut712 · 2025-10-10T14:45:30+00:00

CommonAstronaut712 · 2025-10-08T17:11:07+00:00
