D.C. Reminds Drivers Not to Pay on Weekends And Holidays
   posted 11:20 am Fri December 21, 2007 - Washington
D.C.'s Department of Transportation will install stickers on some parking meters to remind drivers there's no parking enforcement on weekends or holidays.


A D-DOT spokeswoman said the agency expects to have the decals in place within 30 days on its new electronic multi-space meters along K Street and in Georgetown and Adams Morgan. The request was made by a D.C. activist. Terry Lynch said the idea came to him on Veterans Day when an out-of-town driver asked if he was required to pay the meter.
