Even parking directly opposite someone's drive is asking for trouble, as they have to have room to swing in and out of it.
Where exactly was your car parked when you were given the citation?
I find it hard to believe that parking in the street away from drives and junctions would incur a fine - all of the service providers (Massey, CenturyLink etc.) would have been bankrupted long ago.

I was parked directly across from his driveway. Maybe thirty feet from the end of the street. It just never dawned on me that anyone would have a problem backing out of a driveway with only one car on the street even if it was across from the driveway. He didn't look anyway, since he slammed into my car doors an damaged even the hinges.
