This one is outrageous.
My daughter parked her car on the street on MONDAY, within 15 feet of a "No Parking TUESDAYS/Street Sweeping" sign. She was given a ticket. After chasing down the meter maid, it was explained to her that the city border (completely unmarked) came between her car and the sign, and that the streetsweeping sign that applied to her ("No Parking MONDAYS/Street Sweeping") was the one almost 200 feet down the street (almost invisible from the car's location). She had her camera so took a bunch of pictures which we're going to mark up and submit with a protest. I'm not hopeful though. Grrr!
