Got a ticket at the weekend whilst park in a private 'national car parks limited' car park.
Violation 6, not parked in a space correctly, which tbh is bullshit, they want £50 within 14 or £100 within 28.
My car was badly parked but my starter had packed in so needed to park somewhere so i could roll away then bump it.
All the ticket has is my registration, and vehicle make has been marked as 'unknown'.
Few mates have never paid these and never had any trouble.
Should i just burn it ?

If it's not the council I just bin them. Never heard anything else from them tbh. Had them a few times for parking in disabled bays in Asda.

So some OAP/child/mother with a 4x4 doesn't open their doors into your car and then drive off.
I noramlly park over two spaces.

If you want the answer, it's because I have ace cars. Simple as.
....or the fact that mother & baby spots seem to be for fat women with no kids and are always taken. When I have my daughter it's courteous for me to park in one, or would you rather me bash your car whilst putting her in/out of her seat?
....or the fact that disabled spots aren't used be disabled people, but more by the daughters of the disabled person who's borrowed their pass.
That good enough? There's 3 reasons there.
I actually stuck one ticket on the car next to me once. That was pretty funny

Majority of the supermarkets up here have spaces available for shoppers with children. I don't see why if these are full you should resort to parking in disabled spaces.
Park a little bit further away if your that concerned with parking dings and walk that extra few metres.
Slightly harder for a disabled person to do this, I think you'll agree?
Just my opinion before you start on about horses again

You must be mistaking me for someone who actually gives a shit, Jamie.

I got one from some private company, who then passed me on to some 'debt collectors' who sent me a couple of letters trying to scare me, ignored it all, was originally back in february, not heard anything for months.
