Each meter shall be so arranged that, upon the expiration of the lawful time limit, it will indicate by a proper visible signal that the lawful parking period had expired, and in such case the right of such vehicle to occupy such space shall cease and the operator, owner or person in charge thereof shall be subject to the penalties hereinafter provided.
It shall be unlawful and a violation of the provisions of this article for any person to:
A. 
Cause, allow, permit or suffer any vehicle registered in the name of, or operated by, such person to be parked overtime or beyond the period of legal parking time established for any parking meter zone as herein described or to deposit in any parking meter any coin for the purpose of parking beyond the maximum legal parking time for the particular parking meter zone.

Permit any vehicle to remain or be placed in any parking space adjacent to any parking meter while said meter is displaying a signal indicating that the vehicle occupying such parking space has already been parked beyond the period prescribed for such parking space.

Park any vehicle across any line or marking of a parking meter space or in such position that the vehicle shall not be entirely within the area designated by such lines or markings.

Deposit or cause to be deposited in any parking meter any slug, device or metal substance or other substitute for lawful coins.
