I haven't heard if that is true for New York as of yet...

This is definitely not the case for hybrids in Los Angeles or anywhere else in California for that matter.

Back from the dead. sorry.

I just called the City of Los Angeles parking violations bureau and Delores confirmed that Parking at meters was free for HYBRID CARS!

Awsome!

The city of San Jose has a similar free parking program for hybrids:

I too am in the San Fernando Valley of L.A., and when I called the parking violations bureau about this, several months ago, they said the hybrid had to have a clean air sticker (= HOV sticker) in order to get the free parking.

Metered parking is also free for hybrids in New Haven CT. also.

The total time allocated for that parking space is still in effect though...Like a 2-hour max is just that...you just don't have to stuff the meters with quarters. : )

Who told you that? J/K do meter maids even care to mark tires anymore?

In the Los Angeles they are definitely chalking tires. Mostly around high-traffic areas like the beach towns, in front of court-houses or other areas where businesses have complained about violators loading meters all day.
