“The b**** set me up”

Barry, who received three citations after crashing his car driving on the wrong side of the road late Saturday evening, owes the District for 21 separate tickets since 2012 that add up to $2,824. All 21 tickets were given to Barry’s silver 2002 Jaguar X-Type, the vehicle he crashed Saturday night. His outstanding ticket record in the D.C. Department of Motor Vehicle’s online database does not include any of the citations issued as a result of Saturday night’s crash.
Eight of Barry’s tickets are for a failure to display current tags. The former mayor also has five outstanding speeding violations as well as tickets for parking too close to a fire hydrant and blocking a loading zone.
On it’s website, the District’s department of motor vehicles says the department of public works will tow any vehicle with two or more outstanding tickets older than 60 days. A city spokesperson told ABC7 News that Barry’s car had not been towed or booted because all of the tickets on his car were issued overnight, outside the hours when boot crews operate.
