Comptroller View on Payment of Parking Meter Fees Incident to the Use of Government-Owned Vehicles -- Sweeney Letter

GAO was asked to provide information regarding the Comptroller General's views on the payment of parking meter fees incident to the use of Government-owned vehicles.

GAO determined that it is the duty of the Government employee to pay street parking meter fees, for which he will be reimbursed by his agency, and the employee (and not the Government) will be held responsible for payment of any parking tickets resulting from his failure to do so.
