Last year I created an online petition to charge for parking at BART. After taking heat for hosting it at a place that may or may not reserve the right to send spam to you in the future (no evidence of that yet) I and the rest of the Bay Area saw the BART board eventually, timidly, install a monthly reserved parking system for selected spots. This hasn't been a great success yet. I should have been more specific and clearly said that every spot should have a charge, and that it ought to be first-come, first-serve. While I contemplate launching such a petition, the press meanwhile takes plenty of opportunities to distort the (lack of) acceptance of reserved parking. To wit, this Oakland Tribune headline: "Not all will pay to park at BART." It should have read: "Not all will pay to reserve a monthly parking spot at BART." Big difference.
