Check,

I am also 100% against trip parking, but am not willing to go so far as to characterize it as a "violation." Ironically, it is the contract that, unfortunately, permits it. I think it is a loophole that guys will exploit for their benefit. I wish the union would try to get the company to close the loophole, but for whatever reason they seem to be OK with it.

Regarding trip parking in particular - there is no reason it should survive C2012.
