Not exactly a minor consideration to most.
So - The question of whether OP ought to violate US law by impersonating a Federal officer comes down to how much the parking costs? Likelihood of getting caught is close to zero, but if I'm going to commit a felony, it's going to be for more than a couple of hundred bucks !
