    how much is a parking ticket these days

    at this rate he might get enough bids to buy a new motor

    Only ever had one in 45 years driving.

    That's because us tightwads never risk being in a place that might cost us money.

    The ones you get in Asda are not enforceable

    I have had two in my lifetime... One for parking on a yellow line whilst I nipped in the shop for a paper!
    Second was because I parked outside someones house in an unsafe manner so they couldnt get out into oncoming traffic safely.... I appealed that on the grounds that I was parked legally and it's not my fault the person couldn't drive properly! Turned out his mate was the traffic warden and he called him to ticket me even though he wasn't working that area that day! Needless to say I won.

    I got one last night despite paying £5.80 to park in Clapham and clearly displaying my ticket on my dash. Appeal on it's way.

    Lately I've found motoring to be just too stressful and a pain in the ass, and now that I don't really need to drive for work anymore and have got my bus pass, I've more or less stopped.

    The traffic gestapo can get stuffed.

    I dont need a car to be honest.... I average only 2000 miles per year in it... I think my insurance costs more than my yearly petrol costs, which says something!

    Only ever had one.
    Issued while I was getting my ticket from the machine

    The guy said he couldn't change it as it was already in the system

    My appeal was accepted. At that time I think it was about £60
