I live in massachusetts and there was a winter snow parking ban in effect from 3pm-8am..i live in an apt and we only have off street parking so my car was outside and i was inside and a plow truck came down my hill and slammed into my car at 3:38pm..I know i prolbably wasnt supposed to be there but i always park there..i will pay for the citation but is it really my fault to pay for the whole thing even though i was just parked??
 
Yes, You are responsible completely. You have to pay for your damages and your citation. And if there was any damage to the plow truck, you have to pay for the damages.

The snow parking ban is there for a reason. Just because you chose to ignore the rules, does not mean you get to slide. You are wholly responsible for all damages and citations. Time to get a second job.
 
Sounds like you should bring this up before city counsel. Maybe they'll change the law for people who only have on street parking. In the mean time, if you pay the citation without going to court, then you automatically admit guilt of the violation. I think, in this case, it's best to go to court and let a judge decide. Worst case scenario, the judge orders you to pay the citation and you're stuck with the repair costs.
