"Not fair": Man gets $2,900 parking ticket after getting stuck in BC parkade


A Vancouver man is calling foul after he was issued a $2,900 ticket for allegedly damaging the gate arm of a mall parkade — something he insists he didn’t do.

Philipp Postrehovsky was taking his children to a weekly gymnastics class on March 11 and pulling into the Precise ParkLink lot at City Square Mall when he said the gate arm refused to lift for the cars trying to enter.

That’s when he pushed an assistance button, no one answered and, with a little one in need of the bathroom, he decided to try to lift the arm.

Postrehovsky said both the ticket and the time given to pay it are “not fair” and “unreasonable.”
