| Comment | That McDonalds has a tiny car park with a short maximum stay period - designed for people using the McDonalds. The guy worked nearby and was using it as his own personal car park. He was parking there all day every day, and just taking the tickets off his car, scrunching them into a ball and throwing them on the ground.
They had him on CCTV, so they knew who the driver was, and they knew he knew the rules and was ignoring them.
He had over 30 tickets. They took him to court for £5,000. He shat it and settled out-of-court for £2,980.
As much as I hate private parking companies, there's an element of "you kind of deserved that for ripping the arse out of it" in his case. |
