The signs above the 4 charging stations read "ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING ONLY. WHEN CHARGED MOVE VEHICLE SO OTHERS MAY USE THIS STATION. VEHICLES NOT BEING CHARGED MAY BE TICKETED."
If you read that, would you understand that you should move your Electric Vehicle when it is done charging or you may get ticketed?
We waited over 4 hours to charge my Leaf today where these signs were posted above 3 Leafs and one Volt plugged in and Not charging. My daughter just had her wisdom tooth extracted and was not feeling well. My battery indicator had 10 miles left and I have 20 miles until home.
I ended up in a debate with an officer who claims he was the one that designed and wrote the signs for these stations. He said he meant them to be for gas cars that park there. I actually think he was lying. He said he wouldn't enforce the signs by ticketing the violators and after I asked for his supervisor's name, decided that it was ok if I unplug someones car to charge mine after all.
Last year I was the only one charging at the station and this year its always full with squatters. I didn't think that it would come to this so soon.
