civil violation, should we jail people who parked illegally? rather than a fine? should you get deported if you park in the wrong place? Should parking violations be part of people's criminal history? imagine being unemployable due to a parking violation. civil violation ≠ crime, and doesn't make someone illegal someone cannot be illegal, they can do illegal stuff but you cannot be illegal. Existing isn't a crime.

Yes, exactly like that. The act is illegal. Not the person. It's not even a felony for heavens sake.
