Bnei Brak Parking Violations Below National Average

By A. Cohen

The number of parking violations by Bnei Brak residents has been decreasing in recent years compared to the national average according to a report released by the City Parking Authority based on accumulated statistics.

The report says that 83.6 percent of the parking tickets left on car windows in the city went to drivers who were not residents of Bnei Brak. The national average is 60 percent nonresidents compared to 40 percent city residents. The lower rate of parking violations in Bnei Brak has been attributed to greater awareness among city residents following boosted enforcement and an extensive informational campaign.

A total of 216,553 parking tickets were issued in 2002 and 2003. The tickets led to proceedings based on the Law and Order Law and tax orders. The original fines listed on the tickets totaled NIS 20,896,870. A relatively high percentage of fines—57 percent—were paid after the first notice and an additional 22.7 percent were paid after the second notice.
