Take on the overpriced meters

New York City must have some of the most ridiculous parking meter situations.  Not only are the signs completely impossible to follow, when you do get a spot the meters have the most ridiculous rates.  Not only are they expensive, they actually get more expensive the loner you stay.  

Tonight at 24th and Madison, the price was $4.50 for an hour and $12 for two which makes no sense. 


There is nothing in the world where buying more of something increases the unit price but I guess when something is a valuable as NYC street parking you can do just about anything.    The real craziness is that although I paid $12 to pay for two hours it seemed like a good deal.  For reference I pay $18 to park for 10 hours in midtown during the workweek day.
