<p>Just a quick parking question for those of you who might know the answer. I picked up my permit yesterday, and I think I was assigned to lot 4, although the permit itself says '4ST' in small letters overlayed on a large 'F'. Am I allowed to park anywhere in lot 4 or does the F designate a more specific area I have to park in? The whole thing has me kind of confused and I just want to clarify before we move in so that I don't end up with a citation.</p>
<p>I don't want to be... a bad influence, but I know people who didn't buy permits and just paid tickets on the off chance they got one. It usually either helps you save money or you break even.</p>
<p>Oh, I could not be lucky enough. I once parked my car in the blue spaces (I had just started driving at UCLA and was sadly oblivious). I parked my car in the lot on Sunday night, when I came back to get a book out of my car on Weds, I discovered THREE tickets stacked on my poor car-- all from like 7:29 AM on each day and were given by the same person. Blehhh!!!!</p>
