Sam owns a small department store on Main Street. All parking is diagonal spaces out front. There are five parking spaces near the front of the store. The space immediately in front of the store is posted as a loading zone

Two spaces to the left are reserved for disabled parking. The space to the right of the loading space has a fire hydrant near the curb so parking is prohibited. The spaces farther out on both sides are metered and limited to two hour parking. Sam, believing he has a right, arrives early and parks in the loading zone spot. He does this every day. Three months later he is given a ticket. He argues that that spot is reserved for him because all his deliveries actually occur in the alley at the back of the store. Sam should: a. win because all the loading and unloading occurs in the rear of the store.
b. lose because he is illegally parked.
c. win because he is the owner of the store and has the right to park in front of his business.
d. lose because he would have to park there for at least six months to make it legal.
