Mike 214 Report post Posted June 17, 2010 At the weekend I drove into town to go to the bank, I parked down a side road where only myself and 1 other car was parked (it's a 30min max stay, but, its not like cars were queing up to park here). I went on my merry way to the bank, returned 40 minutes later I got back to my car, the nice traffic warden had deposited a yellow sticker on my window, ordering me to pay a penalty of £50, since they are so generous, if I pay the fine within 14 days, I get 50% off, reducing the fine to £25. So today I went down to the local council office to pay the £25 fine, which I paid, in 1p coins, 2500 1p coins to be exact, which took them about 45 minutes to count. Yeah, it was petty, and childish, but I feel better that I was at least able to vent my frustration. Traffic wardens should be shot at birth. The End.

Mike 214 Report post Posted June 17, 2010 Lol. Then don't park longer than 30 minutes Don't get me wrong, it was a valid ticket. I was just frustrated that I was only 10 minutes over, and they'd already stuck a ticket on the car, despite the face that there was only 1 other car parked down the street, it's not like there was a massive queue of cars waiting to park there.

Joe Statler 0 Report post Posted June 17, 2010 At least yours was a parking ticket. I have a DUI ticket from 3 years ago that I still haven't paid, so now I have a warrant out for my arrest. Nice, huh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
