So have any city dwellers just done the US Mills quick release mount for the sole purpose of throwing it on whenever you park at a public meter? I am far more worried about getting a ticket parked at a meter than I am about getting pulled over for it.

From what I understand, you pop the tow hook cover off, and fasten the plate to a mount inside the hole. Is the quick release mount convenient enough to use in this way (off and on and off and on)?

Seems expensive for just that use, but I have parking sensors which limits the effectiveness as a full-time mount, and with the cost of tickets it could pay for itself just by protecting me while parked.

Unless, of course, someone could confirm that a plate on the dash is sufficient to protect you from a ticket while parked. But how can we really be sure about the tickets we *didn't* get, or reconcile the differences between state laws.
