WAUSAU, WI (CNN) - A Wisconsin driver who left a car at a metered space got out of a parking ticket by leaving a note.
The note read "Please take pity on me. I walked home ... Safe choices" and then added a smiley face.
The officer who came across the car gave into the request and wrote back, "Pity granted, just a warning. Zero dollars and zero cents."
The Wausau Police Department posted about the exchange on Facebook, saying the officer appreciates people making safe choices who also have a good sense of humor.
