Drivers hit with parking tickets in Las Vegas can pay with school supplies

LAS VEGAS – Instead of being angry, drivers in Las Vegas with a parking ticket can now feel helpful as they will be able to pay off the fines by bringing in school supplies.

From June 19 through July 19, those with a parking infraction in Las Vegas can make good on their tickets by dropping off new, unwrapped school supplies of equal or greater value to their fine.
