    100% fake. There are LADOT placards that some city employees can use when doing official business in their personal cars, but they (1) don’t allow parking in red zones, (2) will have the business card of the employee with their info and work address, (3) have an expiration date, and (4) actually look official with decals and such.

    Red curbs mark areas that must be kept clear for emergency access. A cop car is an emergency vehicle. I am an EMT, not a cop, but I park my ambulance in red zones daily. That’s what they’re for.

    To be fair, we are sometimes guilty of doing this while picking up lunch or coffee. But cut us some slack, usually we’re parked there because we’re saving your life.

    This is a comically fake parking placard.

    The City of Los Angeles does issue parking placards, but they don't look like that. They are specific to both the vehicle and the person they are issued to. None of them allow parking in red zones or other restricted parking such as disabled spaces. There is no City of LA parking enforcement that would buy that this placard is legitimate, nor would any tow service that knows what they're doing. That looks like a spectacular way to both lose your vehicle plus catch charges for the fake placard. In short, what a maroon.

    If you're so inclined you could call the city about it, but I'd wager that if that car lingers in a red zone for more than a few hours either parking enforcement or a tow service will discover it on their own and will take care of it for you.

    Source: family that work for the city and have legit placards.

    Also, it just says "temporary parking permit."

    Any real document similar to whatever that person is faking would specify a date range and what is actually permitted. No official document about anything will ever just say "temporary" and then let you wave it around forever with no end date. You don't get a year of insurance with paperwork that doesn't specify the year.

    And it would specify what the hell it permits. No document can just let you park anywhere under all circumstances. You can't smash through windows and run over some people and park in the lobby of a hotel and just be like hey I have a parking permit. It permits me to park, just like generally.

    You need exempt plates to park like jerk as a city or state employee. Know first hand. If they are exempt plates you can park pretty much anywhere but handicap zones and you don't have to pay a meter. Placards are usually only for civil servants who drive their personal cars and don't give the same parking exemptions. This is neither of those things, not even a real city parking pass for residents.

    Exempt is only a pass from yearly registration. That placard is likely a fake. Pkg Enforcement will ticket it if you call them. However, it’s probably only a $50 fine.
