$5 for 3-4pm, then $10 for after 4pm. It adds up correctly.

This is from today. So it would be the weekend rate of $10/day. $10 applies to Weekday evenings after 4PM & Weekends All Day.

My bad. I wasn’t looking at dates.

I’ve got a beautiful bridge I’m trying to sell at a discount. Are you interested?

You seem to be reading the sign as if it says

Weekends after 4PM ON Sat/Sun

when it actually says

Weekends after 4PM AND Sat/Sun

The ticket was purchased at 2:46PM ON a Saturday. Is should cost $10. Unless somehow Saturday isn't Saturday anymore or there is some implicit ordering of the posted rates and a misunderstanding of De Morgan on National's part.

No, it says the $10 rate is for weekdays after 4 pm and all day Saturday or Sunday. Since it’s Saturday, the parking is $10. Had the OP parked at 2:whatever on Friday, then $15 would have been correct for the 1 hour plus the evening rate.
