A friend got one at the public parking spot. He has to go back in a couple weeks for an appearance lol. He didn't say how much the ticket was for though.Be prepared to stay overnight. Be careful sleeping in your car in montauk though. There are only a few places where you won't get a ticket.
Which public parking? is there a sign that says there is a maximum parking time allowed?A friend got one at the public parking spot. He has to go back in a couple weeks for an appearance lol. He didn't say how much the ticket was for though.
I believe it was just the public free parking for beach. The officer said that no overnight sleeping in car that's why he got the ticket. not for the parking.Which public parking? is there a sign that says there is a maximum parking time allowed?
Fake surges all around yes. A 2.0 surge will give you a 1.2x ping. 3.0x surge gives only a 1.7 or 1.9x surge. crazy robbery by Uber there. Not worth it. Rather drive Bay Shore and East Patchogue area. I found the south side much better money from folks taking the ferries/yachts and coming back to the island.You guys are totally correct, there is so many dead spot in the Hampton and they don't tip. I was out there Fri and same as what other said. Was in a area with 2.4x surge waited for 5 mins then pinged a 1.4x.
I did not know it’s not allowed to sleep in your car at the parking lot, I did it once last year. if I ever end up in Montauk again, where can I park overnight legally without getting a ticket?I believe it was just the public free parking for beach.

Yes, by the relief stations, in the free parking lot, on the south-side of the street, just north of the dunes. Showers insofar as wide-open showers, for all to see, while washing-off sand, etc..LIRR lot. There's also supposed to be free showers available across the street somewhere.
He went to the appearance. Had to pay $150 fine lol. Said there were a bunch of Uber drivers there for the same violation. Everyone had to pay $150 for first offence. Not sure how much 2nd offence was for.I did not know it’s not allowed to sleep in your car at the parking lot, I did it once last year. if I ever end up in Montauk again, where can I park overnight legally without getting a ticket?
I wish your friend could get the ticket dismissed, let us know how it went with him.
That sucks, looks like they are trying to deter drivers from going there, did he have a chance to defend himself? did the officer go to court to testify?He went to the appearance.

The LIRR lot looks like a scary place, I never noticed there is showers or bathroom when I was there.LIRR lot. There's also supposed to be free showers available across the street somewhere.
Yah, apparently. That's why they have to take another day out to appear in court rather than just paying a fine. Especially if you're out from Brooklyn or the city, like my friend. No officer in court. just some person before the judge who gives you a deal. Similar to Nassau county I guess.That sucks, looks like they are trying to deter drivers from going there, did he have a chance to defend himself? did the officer go to court to testify?

what if the car s legally parked on any street, is it illegal to sleep in your car?
$150 is considered a deal? getting a deal means agreeing to pay a reduced fine and waive your right to see the judge to defend yourself, if $150 is a deal, then the actual fine must be a lot higher if you are found guilty by the judge.Yah, apparently.

Showers are at the Beach parking lot by the public bathrooms. Get a soap/shampoo from the store across the parking lot and shower in your shorts there. It's illegal to sleep in your car, hence the tickets. Even if you're legally parking on the street. You would get a ticket even in the LIRR. Especially since there's lots of the Local Taxi's that park there and they call the cops on the Uber drivers there apparently since they hate them.
Yep. He told me someone was rude and arguing with the lady offering the deal and he got a $300 fine. He decided to ask the judge for a trial but it was on a different date. They don't give you the trial the same day. So he ended up paying the fine because he didn't want to come back from the Bronx. lol.$150 is considered a deal? getting a deal means agreeing to pay a reduced fine and waive your right to see the judge to defend yourself, if $150 is a deal, then the actual fine must be a lot higher if you are found guilty by the judge.
