Exactly. The traffic cop can just write down the license plates, take pictures, whatever is convenient. The city could use cameras and automate a great deal of the process. All without ever touching the car except for placing the ticket on the windshield when it's issued (and why is that not trespassing?! probably because by then the officer has evidence of a violation, thus curing the trespass).
- esturk 8y agoIf you read the article, the 4th amendment has 2 parts. Is it a search and is it reasonable. Chalking is not reasonable because at the moment of chalking, the car is in a legal position. Placing a ticket is reasonable because at the time of placement, it is no longer in a legal position. Otherwise no one can place parking tickets no more.
