Anyone had a parking ticket?

<< < (2/2)

Coded:
I know theres no excuse, just never thought of about it before, plus i swear the sign on the floor is faded ;)

dogbert:
I got issued a parking ticket in Salisbury...for parking without an valid ticket at 8.24am when they start charging at 8am.

You would think thats a valid ticket....but oh no. I am a local resident and as such get special dispensation to park in the pay&display car park becuase its outside my own backdoor and there is no other street parking !!

I stormed into the local council office and placed the ticket on the receptionists desk and said.."I have paid my residences permit licence I am paying the parking wardens wages through my council tax I do NOT expect to be issued with parking tickets for parking outside my own front door...kindly take down any details you need becuase I will not be paying this ticket and any further correspondance about this matter will be forwarded to the Salisbury Journal (Local paper)."

As you may guess parking is a hot issue were I live.
 :evil:

Serious:
Ours is restricted during 9am-6pm to one hour no return for one hour but I havent seen many wardens, actually I havent seen *any* wardens. Still we have a free parking permit so we can ignore the restriction :)

FuMaN:
Ive had 2 in my lifetime for going over the display ticket time.

knighty:
once for parking in a loading zone.... only i was in a van, and was unloading (was inside the shop when i got it)

had even left the back doors wide open... b******s

arguied about it and got off tho !

I was unloading !  plus we had our own private parking space 20feet away anyway (right next to our shop)


got a speeding ticket... then forgot to pay it ! so ended up with a £90 fine :o
