If people are stupid enough to fall into council/police traps then that's their fault, not mine. Isn't a council supposed to aid a city, why enforce ridiculous unnecessary parking restrictions on people just wanting to enjoy an afternoon at a match, if people obstruct or cause an issue ticket them by all means but don't artificially create a problem then make money off the back of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You still haven't answered my question though I turn up and park nobody on the other side so I'm legal somebody parks opposite now I'm illegal who decides who is illegal and who isn't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was my first day back at work after a holiday (I was knackered) and I stopped to get some food in the morning. I thought I’d just rest my eyes for a minute...woke up 5 hours later. Got a £40 fine! Had no idea until a letter weeks later. They clocked my reg driving in at 9am and leaving at 2pm. Be be careful out there... Write to them and explain. If they don’t refund it then start a dirty protest in their customer toilets or start opening merchandise in the shop to the value of the fine. fizz em Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

airborne_rat_of_s6 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 (edited) Pretty sure there is an argument to say collecting information in this manner and not leaving a ticket to let the vehicle owner know there is intent to fine is wrong. How can you take photos to counter any claims when you contest it on their online portal (which I have successfully done on a few occasions). Numb nuts operators don’t know highway regs well enough and the signage is not located correctly in many instances. To that end you can innocently park, not knowing you are the wrong side of a clearway sign as the end of clearway signage is obscured (one instance I won). If you don’t know there is an infringement on a public road then you don’t have the opportunity to gather any evidence. Last time I spoke to them the guy actually let on that 40-50% of tickets issued are incorrect or there is sufficient doubt to mount a challenge which they will void the fine. Despite the amount of money they make the bloke was bleeding on about not having the resources to manage it properly. Message is, challenge everything and hopefully they will buckle under the blizzard that comes their way.

It's about time we have some actual pride in our city and clamp down on this predatory behaviour. I don't know who but somebody needs to make these vehicles inoperable enough times to make operation financially unjustifiable and yes I am certainly condoning this. Park the camera car up Herries Rd on matchday & it'll get it's mirrors & tyres vandalised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
striker Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Pathetic, why are they so happy? Scum, in their cheap suits leaching money out of road users instead of improving the road network and parking spaces to adequately cater for the increasing number of vehicles. Shame though, easier to out run the on foot traffic filth. Last time, many years ago, I was just returning to my car when I saw him, started to drive off before he'd written his little ticket and he got very angry, his little head wobbling his stupid hat thinking he was the Police. Told him if he could catch me, I'd accept his ticket otherwise he could flipping do one. He made a bit of an effort but wasnt going to catch me at 30mph. Never got anything in the post afterwards regarding a ticket and the look on his previously smug face was priceless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sultan_Pepper Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Any definition of what illegal parking entails. I know London has some new laws about parking half on the pavement being illegal but don't think that's spread up north has it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OhForAnotherShez Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Weren't these types of vehicle used a few years ago, and used to catch cars in 'rush hour' urban clearways? there was i believe some problem and they were withdrawn. What's changed? Please swoop outside schools. If there's anything more annoying that a prat with his engine running, illegally parked, playing on their phone, it's one with a pigs sticker in.
