It's expensive to drive in San Francisco, if the parking meters don't get you then the fines for the expired meters will. I noticed today that on the corner of Fell and Masonic another Red light camera was being installed, which is part of the Automated Red Light Photo Enforcement System , which according to current state law has to be administered by a Governmental Agency, in San Francisco's case it's the Municipal Transportation Agency, also known as the "MTA" whom has been known to convey how they continue to have budget shortfalls.
According to the article in the link I attached Chronicle Reporter Rachel Gordon Reports that according to "MTA'S" own survey is that San Francisco's Parking meter fees and fines are the highest, if not one of the highest in the nation. They, "MTA" also "brings in" 50 million dollars a year in revnue, from fines and fees. I just hope the drivers here in San Francisco are careful and attentive to where they park
