A San Francisco man is fighting a ticket for parking in a red zone after the curb was repainted red, while his car was parked in the spot.
ABC7 News, our sister station in San Francisco, spoke to Erica Kato, a spokesperson for SFMTA, who confirms the ticket is for a red zone violation. But in an interesting twist, it's not for the newly painted red stripe. The violation is for parking in an old faded one.
This image provided by the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Authority shows a faded red zone parking space at the corner of Union & Larkin Streets, where an SF man claimed he got a parking ticket in July of 2022. ABC7 News examined that same spot using Google Maps street view images, and in several clear photos from 2016 and 2021, the red paint on the curb appears to have completely faded away so the curb looks completely gray.

It could be enforced or dismissed. It's a process that could take up to 60 days.
