D.C. drivers gave approximately $61.5 million to pay their parking tickets in the last fiscal year, NBC 4 Washington reported, attributing the data to the American Automobile Association (AAA) Mid-Atlantic.

In 2018, a total of 1,417,001 tickets were issued in the District of Columbia (around 4,700 parking tickets a day), which added up to $61.5 million in parking ticket revenue for last year.

The number of tickets issued in 2017 was 1,387,006, bringing $60.7 million revenue to D.C.

However, the figures from both 2017 and 2018 are notably lower than those from the year of 2011, when 1.9 million tickets were given and the amount paid for them was $91 million.

As for 2019, the District has issued 656,743 tickets and collected $22,611,119 by March 31.
