HELP!!! I'm being discriminated against!

I got it taken care of this morning. I ended up talking with Doug Olson, who is the Director of Workforce Development & Recruitment, instead of the President of the CVTC. I didn't even have to get ugly. He himself is a rider. He said he had a couple bikes and several others in his family, including his wife I believe, have bikes. He was very polite and understood what was going on. After he voided the tickets and made a note of my plate number and stuff so he could tell the parking enforcement to leave me alone, I told him about contacting my congressman, the local media, and about the posts here. I told him thank you and that I would call off the hounds. By the way, I did get a call from my congressman's office this afternoon, and they said that they would take care of the problem. I told them the problem had been resolved this morning and thanked them for calling. I also got an email back from the DOT & DMV Special Plates Unit. They let me know that there is in fact a temp disability plate I could get. I wonder why the people at the local DMV told me that there was only a plate for permanent disabilities??? What else would one expect from a government outfit?

 

Thanx for everyones input. Hopefully this won't be an issue later.

 

A1bummer,glad you got it resolved. You should know that dealing with the Wisconsin DMV is like dealing with the IRS.Talk to 5 people and get 5 different answers.

When we ordered a collector plate for our bike,2 people at the DMV told us they were not available for bikes.I had to point out in the application that this was a option...Still haven't got the plate yet,but Rome wasn't built in a day..

I made a little bit of a mistake in that last post. It wasn't the Congressman's office that called. I was the office of State Senator Pat Kreitlow. It was an email from the congresman's office that I had gotten.

 

Dear Mr. Yeske: Since your email regarding your temporary disabled permit and parking issues involve a state agency and not a federal one, I have taken the liberty of forwarding your email to your State Senator who has jurisdiction over state agencies such as the DMV.

I have asked the office of State Senator Pat Kreitlow to contact you. For your reference, his email address is Sen.Kreitlow@legis.wisconsin.gov .

Please feel free to contact our office in the future with any questions or concerns you may have involving the federal government and its’ agencies.

Sincerely,

Terry S. Shulta
