maby he got mad at the ticket that he threw it down the shaft

She was making sweet love to the elevator control panel when they fell out. Duhh.

that was smooth, but couldn't you just go and put more money in the meter while you wait for someone to get out the keys?

who cares it's 75 bucks big deal

Ok pal mail me $75 right now I'll pm u my address.

she sent have any money because it was in the car! dur

15 says it all, no more commenting needed

33- it ain't hard to ask a passersby or someone in their apartment for 50 cents

15 = win.

42- what op actually did = loss :|

lie

I would like an answer to #1's question. Aren't there safety guards or something in place to prevent that kind of thing? YDI for not putting change in the meter first, for not finding change to put in after you were locked out, and of course, for locking your keys in the car.

I meant for dropping your keys down the shaft.

ImaginaryFoe, they probably did put change in first, just not 6 hours worth of change.

ImaginaryFoe have you never noticed the gap between the elevator and the floor when you are getting off and on? That would be where the OP's keys went. And to answer your question, no, most elevators do not have any kind of safe guard to prevent small items from falling down through that gap.

how stupid can u be should have been an extra 75 buck for being retarded

Uhh.. Win?

There's a small, tiny hint of win in there. Amongst all that rushed typing and those grammatical errors. *hands you a magnifying glass* This should help. :)

I'm not sure you can fight a ticket by telling them you were an idiot...

Eh, I doubt the OP purposely dropped them. Do you have to be an idiot to drop keys? She was simply unlucky in where they landed. I'm pretty sure the courts would understand that she was unable to get into her car, and if she can show when she called maintenance and the maintenance person will attest to when they got there, then it proves her story.

Courts don't care about your personal interest stories. They just want your money. They're extortionists. You could have been trying to save a baby from a fire and they would still demand payment. "F-you pay me."

They do, however, care when moving your car was impossible. If she has documentation to prove that the scenario happened, they will most likely dismiss the ticket. It's when people come in with sob stories that can't be substantiated that the court gives them a little dose of reality. If the OP is prepared before she goes into the courtroom, she should be fine. It's all about whether or not she feels it's worth it to get rid of the 75 dollar ticket.

Too busy getting her car keys I'd assume :)

nimba, that's kinda hard to do when her money's in her car
