Over the course of three weeks, Keith received five tickets for displaying Christmas lights on his vehicle and a sixth ticket for failing to signal a turn.
FAIRBANKS, Alaska - Every holiday season, Doordasher Keith Fons displays Christmas lights on his vehicles.
Borough Assembly member Tammie Wilson said,” Five tickets are a little excessive, you know, on it, but at the same time, it’s just like if you went speeding down the road. If you know you’re breaking the law and you make that choice, that’s kind of the penalty that comes with it.” Fons’ goal by fighting the tickets is to have the law changed, but Dutra says it isn’t that easy. “It’s not a City of North Pole regulation. It’s a State of Alaska regulation adopted by federal standards,” Dutra explained.
On December 29, Fons stood before Judge Matthew Christian at the Rabinowitz Courthouse for his hearing. “Even though it might be a gray line with the law, there should be some holiday spirit, and if that’s your intentions, you shouldn’t be fined. You shouldn’t get in trouble for spreading joy in Christmas town,” he said.
