My greatest realpolitik lesson at uni was being assigned parking in an "odd" building's gated parking lot. It was close to my dorm, but required carrying your permit to them, so they could enter you into their system for access.

Cue realization they weren't connected to the main university parking registry.

Cue my not buying a parking pass (a substantial cost, as this was an urban campus) for the next few semesters... as my prior auth continued to work on the gate.

And why would parking police think to check for unregistered parkers in a gated lot?

(As far as I can remember, I still had access ~2 years after graduation, then they finally cleaned up their DB)
