Baltimore is writing more parking tickets again - Banner The city wrote fewer tickets in 2024 than it did during the pandemic. Here’s what’s happened in 2025. https://www.thebanner.com/community/transportation/transportation-citation-baltimore-driving-Q3LYMFSY5RBC7CAWL5DDAKAWOA/ In an interview, McBeth stressed that tickets are not just a revenue ploy. Really they’re about quality of life and the social order. Citations are what make people move their cars for street sweepers and keep folks from blocking fire hydrants and bus lanes. In permitted neighborhoods, they’re what keep people from circling the block for hours after work looking for a spot that might be taken by someone down at the corner bar. “I know it’s contentious,” McBeth said. “Nobody wants to get a parking ticket. But you know, I think we all have experienced a moment where somebody has impacted us negatively, driving down the street, or double parking in front of us.”
