Once Again, Texas Leads the Way

Army cars booted over unpaid tickets - UPI.com: "DALLAS, Nov. 14 (UPI) -- Officials in Dallas have booted five cars belonging to U.S. Army recruiters to get the Army to pay parking fines.

The Army owes $2,635 in fines for unpaid parking tickets -- an amount that warrants a response beyond just issuing another ticket on another vehicle, the city said in a story published Wednesday in The Dallas Morning News.

The metal boots, which immobilize vehicles, would be removed once the tickets are paid, city officials told soldiers who marched to City Hall to complain."
