- 1). Look for a parking ticket on your car. Parking tickets are most commonly left on the front windshield of the car so that the driver notices it right away. You should also check the driver's side window and the rear window. Sometimes, a parking ticket could blow away if the ticketing authority does not secure it down enough. As such, quickly scan the ground around your car to see if you notice any small pieces of paper.
- 2). Contact the Department of Motor Vehicles in your state. Ask for a record or history of your traffic violations. You can specifically tell them that you are interested in knowing whether or not you have a parking ticket. The DMV can look up your vehicle history using your license plate number or VIN.
- 3). Visit DMV.org to research your parking ticket. This website gives you access to your driving history based on your state. By following the prompts in the website you can figure out if you have a parking ticket.
- 4). Contact the traffic court in your county or city. Ask a court clerk to look up whether you have a parking ticket on your file. The clerk will be able to tell you when the ticket was issued, when the money is owed and how much is due.
