Parking Violations For Rental Cars

If you received a parking citation on a vehicle registered to a rental car company, your payment options remain the same. But when paying online, please be advised of the following:

  • It is possible there will be additional citations issued to the rental car agency itself
  • Review the violation date, citation number, and violation type - be sure it matches the information on your physical citation before continuing with payment
  • Failure to take responsibility for a citation you received in a rental vehicle may cause additional fees/action taken

Step-by-Step
