The secret to getting out of a ticket in Ottawa? Let a tree fall on your car

[guest]

Hydro crews and homeowners are still working to clean up after yesterday’s major windstorm.

For others, like by-law enforcement officers, it’s life-as-normal.

Or close to it.

Kitchissippi ward’s Jeff Leiper tweeted out this photo on Saturday morning:

Chatted with by-law attending at Parkdale/Burnside. No parking, but the officer has opted not to ticket. I’m ok with that. pic.twitter.com/RHs2oSllPg

The good news? The owner of the car saved some money on a parking ticket.

The bad news? The whole tree-falling-on-car thing looks expensive.

The other good news? Looks like a pretty decent Christmas tree… if you’re planning ahead.

ALSO: Big, bad wind blows itself out of town, warm weather and sunny skies stick around
